Everything you need to know about Wrist Pain
Wrist pain is usually caused by fractures & sprains from unplanned injuries. Wrist pain in kids and adults can occasionally be the result of long-term problems, such as consistent stress, carpal tunnel syndrome & arthritis.
Diagnosing the exact cause of wrist pain can be difficult and usually requires a medical professional to examine the pain area(s). If you have wrist pain that will not go away, we first recommend seeing a medical professional to rule out any serious or non serious conditions.

Repetitive stress: commonly attributed to sports injuries such as swinging a tennis racket over and over again can cause long-term wrist pain.
Arthritis
Osteoarthritis: a type of arthritis that occurs when the cartilage at the ends of your bones deteriorates over time
Rheumatoid arthritis: a type of arthritis that is attributed to a bodily disorder in which the body's own immune system attacks tissue in the body, commonly including the wrist(s).
Other Conditions
Carpal tunnel syndrome: occurs when there's increased pressure on the median nerve as it passes through the carpal tunnel.
