Thanks Helen. I would imagine any time someone starts doing something new that requires repetitive motions, some soreness is to be expected until the body adapts.
Moist heat does sometimes help the arthritis.
I don’t get the wrist pain with either the straight or the circulars, but lately I’ve been getting pain up the left side (palm facing) of my ring finger on my left hand. No other pain or stiffness anywhere, and I knit for hours and have not ever had a problem. IT is very weird. My arms, neck and shoulders don’t hurt either. Anyone else have this problem??
It is always a good idea once you have some pain, to let it heal before knitting (or whatever it causing the pain) again
Yep. That’s why I’ve been here posting a lot of silly stuff. I’m laying off a bit to let the wrist heal some.
