    God bless this man. I recently started playing overwatch after not playing or doing anything that required repetive/minute motion in a long while (I played Osu! years ago and it really did a number on my wrist/nerves) and started feeling the pain. Now I just leave his videos permanently open to do the exercises at any time, almost after every game. my wrists definitely feel stronger

      Hell no
      I'm sorry but surgery is NOT always the answer to things!
      Ok doing these exercises and yoga
      at first it's not that effective but if you keep active with them
      You will notice they become more and more effective.
      It's better to do those things rather than something that you may regret later on doing. Surgery should be the last thing that comes into mind.

    Gamer since 6 or 8 years old over here.
    On occasion is easier to just not pay attention to the signs, one just shrugs them off as something insignificant, the hit comes much later, currently I'm thirty years old and now I´m feeling the pain with more intensity. Believe it or not I didn´t there were specific execises for wrists, elbows of forearms that address these pains.
    This exercises really helped me. Thanks Dr. Levi!

    Lately been noticing loss in finger dexterity and grip strength in my right hand. Also stinging pain in various places on my right arm and left arm. I only got halfway trough the open palm counter clockwise exercise and my hand couldn't do a single more and felt as I would've done 100 reps with heavy weights.. JUST BY TURNING MY WRISTS. I have done hand exercises on and off for a year and a half but lately I've been slacking off. I will definitely take these exercises seriously. Maybe even see a doctor. Anyway, I appreciate the help and the videos.

    Thank you SO much for these stretches! They feel great, I can feel the stretch right away. I started getting gamer’s thumb two weeks ago (and I’m not a gamer) and now I have it in a splint. It has been helping, but now I want to move on to strengthen and stretch so this doesn’t happen again.

    I've been doing this for a week and it's almost completely gotten rid of tension in my wrist.
    I kept waking up and night and I can finally sleep without the numbess from before waking me up thank you SO much!

    You sir are ahead of the times! Not much self care education is given to people who are in activities besides sports. :) thank you so much!
