The Lesbian… Exercises?

I don’t have any sure answers for you, but I’ll give you the first thing I thought of. You could try those metal, A-shaped things that you squeeze together with you hand. I have no idea what it’s called. But when I attempted to figure it out on google, I found that there are a bunch of books and products aimed at strengthening your hands so you should look into those.

Also, I bet there all lesbians with carpal tunnel or a similar problem so as long as you can be anonymous, you might as well just be truthful on the carpal tunnel forums. You might have better luck than over here.

You could be having a common issue with trigger-thumb or a slight issue with arthritis. I have similar issues, though thankfully, not in the sac! heh. Talk to a doc or an acupuncturist about the type of pain - they should be able to manage it.

well try wrapping your hand when you go to sleep in a way that keeps the bones in a natural position. the lack of motion should help help the inflammation heal. could take well over a week to see results, but try to remember to do it each night.

I’ve been there too… Try squeezing a tennis ball for about 5 minutes a day with each hand. You’ll develop strength in your wrists for sure that way.

ouch, sounds like tendinitis trouble. be careful because this could get really bad! to strengthen your wrists, you need to get a 3-pound weight and, holding your forearm steady (parallel to the floor; you can use your thigh/knee as a support), do reps with your palm face-up (curling your palm toward your inner forearm) and an equal set of reps with your palm face-down (lifting the back of your hand up and toward you). start with fifteen reps per direction, per wrist and see how that feels. if you can do more, do more, but consistency is more important than quantity at this point. also, you should probably ice your wrists after sex (romantic, i know) if you aren’t already.

are you doing a lot of typing? because that can be a huge weakener (along with piano playing, tennis, etc.). the sudden frenzy of activity with your girlfriend probably just served to aggravate a more longterm problem, so you might want to make a list of all the activities you do that involve repetitive wrist motion to see what else might be a problem source.

I don’t mean to sound like a bitch, but: these people are not doctors. Go see a doctor. I know this isn’t the answer you want, but well, it’s the thing you *should* do.

The thing is, if you have an injury(tendon, muscle, etc) or carpal tunnel syndrome, doing any of these ‘exercises’ will cause further damage and make it worse.

Rotten luck, though. I hope it all works out for you guys.

i was having the same issues, i have both carpal tunnel and arthritis in my wrists. so yea big time pain. what i try to do is try to angle my shoulder and elbow so that i can get at the same spot with out over working my wrist. if you can get the correct shoulder to elbow angle u can give her the same amount of pleaser with a lot less wrist action.

I’m going to step in here too and suggest that you get yourself a powerball. Not only strengthens the wrists but gives you great upper body strength too - you can read and stuff at same time once you master technique.
