Too much gaming over the last two weeks and now my right wrist and thumb are killing me. Naproxen is not touching this sore pain.
I think the Xbox series X/S controller is really good. Its not just the shape for me, its the texture of the plastic. It always feels like I'm holding a smoothed pebble that just kinda stays put and then the grid like texture on the back just sits nicely and doesn't slip around.Controller shape also matters too. I've got an Xbox Series X, and the controller that came with that is the best one I've ever seen, which is saying something. In terms of like, comfort and ergonomics and all that.
I think I’ll pass.Trade ya for two arthritic thumbs. Two for the price of one!
Yeah you've probably strained a tendon. NSAIDs (like ibuprofen or naproxen) and ice/heat. And stretching and rest from the activity that caused the pain. That should resolve it. If not somewhat improved in about 10-14 days you might want to contact a doctor. You can also purchase a splint that would brace your thumb if you are so inclined.Too much gaming over the last two weeks and now my right wrist and thumb are killing me.

Warning to fellow gamers - take breaks and stretch your hands and wrists.

I already heard one person tell me to give up the games over this - because games are a "waste of time and life", says the woman who watches Married at First Sight (not my mom, my boss).Just please don’t let anyone shame you into thinking you should give up video games because of this.
Did you laugh when she said that or just shrug it off?I already heard one person tell me to give up the games over this - because games are a "waste of time and life", says the woman who watches Married at First Sight (not my mom, my boss).

Probably the better option. People who dismiss you for your interests aren’t worth your time.I shrugged it off.
