Hi..Mostly this type of complaints were due to repetitive strain injuries . This was caused by repeatedly straining the muscles and other structures in that particular area... Sometimes in wrist a nerve also gets involved and numbness also may start. The best way to treat /avoid - Start doing wrist stretches every 1hr. Use ice packs for 2 days and then hot water fermentation. Use wrist padded mouse pads so that wrist will get support while computing. Start strengthening training for the wrist once pain got subsided. Follow good ergonomics Visit- Synapsephysiocare.com for consultation.

Hello..... Operating mouse wouldn't require so much energy to cause injury at wrist... Moreover you don't twist and turn your wrist while operating mouse... Give rest to wrist for few days. Use laptop.. If pain don't subside get an x ray and consult orthopedic doctor at your convenient place.......
