It’s not unbearable or anything but it flares up enough to get annoying, especially after long work days, mostly shoulder tightness and this weird ache in my wrist that comes and goes. I’ve been managing it with stretching and a pain gel from Ketro skin when it gets bad and that kept it pretty under control so far. Im curious how a lot of you figured out the difference between normal overuse/aging pain against the start of actual chronic pain issues, did it creep up slowly for you too or was there a point where you realized okay this isn’t temporary anymore?
