Excellent point. We should listen to the warnings from our body.

No, I don't use the towel anymore because I trained myself a long time ago to not grip the controller tight with the pinky.

No matter what, the brace will make contact with the bottom of the controller handles. It was never bad enough for me that it worsened my gameplay but if you have smaller hands, I would assume if you adjust the straps tighter, it should be ok. If I were you I would order 1 to try the fit before buying a second. If you try it, please return and share how it fits with others please. Thanks.

I still wear a wrist brace for gaming and when using a mouse. I will make an update video very soon to follow up on what brace I use currently.

@donperion5000 is it safe fam? I saw videos saying it can lead to atrophy of muscles. But you been doing it for 6 years and no issues?

@@matthewbonner100 If your asking if it's safe to wear a wrist brace for gaming, then my personal answer is yes. I don't game for more than 2hrs at a time. I would assume it would have a bad effect if someone was wearing it all day or something.

@@matthewbonner100 just uploaded an updated video.

An overall thing that has helped me personally is NOT playing first person shooters anymore. I just got tired of them because I was never good enough lol. So, the intensity of any controller usage matters a lot. Sticking to single player games made a difference. I'm not saying y'all should quit shooters, just saying to be aware of your pressure and grip on the controller.

@@donperion5000 That’s a good point. Most of my games are single player, but unfortunately for old wristy, they’re all fast paced third person or first person shooters like Doom Eternal or RE6.

Some people become aware of bad habits quicker than others.

I actually still use the 2 wrist guards when I play. I dont need the towel under the controller anymore because im used to avoiding clenching the controller. Using the wrist guards and not pressing buttons too hard has stopped my pain for a few years now.

@@donperion5000 thanks for the quick reply this gives me hope it'll go away

@@donperion5000 man you're amazing thanks

Iv had it from the PS4 controller, the R2 button really dose the wrists in it’s to tuff should be softer.

Im definitely not qualified to give expert advice lol, but recently I searched youtube for carpal tunnel exercises. I do the wrist stretches before I start gaming and sometimes during and I feel like it helps alot to prevent the pain or tingling feeling a bit. Heres one of the videos that was helpful for me ruclips.net/video/FoKUWlKK_Vc/видео.html

Hey, whatever gets rid of the pain!

I cant waaait for CyberPunk! Btw, I still use the both wrist guards to prevent bad wrist angles. I don't use the cloth under the controller anymore though because ive learned how to avoid clenching the controller.

Just make sure it's snug enough to support your wrist to the point you feel stabalized. After a long session I have marks on my hand too but if you have any brace or wrap that will happen. If your worried about circulation then im assuming you are wrapping too tight.

donald lawrence alright thanks

Glad to hear that your on your road to improvement!

🤣

I know what you mean. It took a long time for me to train myself to stop using to much force on the controller. Since I lightened up on the grip, I can play everyday w/o pain. Keep those 🎮 hands healthy lol

My pain was a combination of thumb and wrist pain. I dont know if I could call it carpal tunnel but pay close attention to all of your hand activity while using the controller so you can get better at preventing pain. BTW, I still use the wrist braces till this day when playing FPS games because those games are the most strain on my hands because of the intensity.

We are all different and it seems like everyone has pain with all types of controllers but the one thing that we all have in common is getting older. At some point at certain ages whether its in our 20s or 30s, pain start kicking in from controllers and keyboards. Pay close attention to what triggers your pain. Maybe you should get a cotroller with paddles on the bottom to reassign some buttons. My thumbs were sore from playing FPS games and adding paddles to the bottom of my controller was perfect.

@@donperion5000 that's just it I'm only 13 I shouldn't have so much pain in my fingers after a three-hour game session

@@lukenicholas6507 In my opinion, playing Fps is the most intense types of games and are the only ones that I've experienced pain from. Fps games take so much concentration that you could be pressing buttons harder than you should or holding the controller in bad positions for long periods or time without even realizing it. 3 hours playing Fps is way harder on your hands than playing 3 hours of something slow like Skyrim. If you play everyday, you might need to take a break until you're hands completely heal, then come back but paying really close attention to your button presses and controller holding positions. Get yourself right because 2020 is gonna be 🔥 with the new games and consoles lol.

Yeah your right, I had to train myself to not press any buttons too hard, especially the thumb sticks because it would always give me sore thumbs and sometimes wrist pain. Thumb pain sucks though because you lose alot of strength with your hand. But damn bro, 12hrs is a long stretch, I don't know if anyone can go that looking without some pain after lol.

In time you'll train yourself to use correct positions and you wont need any support. But take it easy so you can heal up though 👌

Everyone is different and everyone develops bad habits. Luckily you didnt.

I know the feeling. my thumbs used to get sore after playing FPS games after about an hour straight. What triggered the pain for me was when I would press down on the left thumbstick to run. Over time I think I got used to not pressing so hard. I think the key to gaming pain-free is to keep your wrists and hands in good positions and not to be intense with button presses over a long session. Its a basic response but I've trained myself to play correctly w/o any gear and I have no pain so just pay attention to what triggers your pain and reverse it if that makes sense.

@@donperion5000 thanks man, this really helped! I hope you have a good week!

@@donperion5000 also you deserve a million subscribers

@@Abd-ku3fo a million subscribers, imagine that. That would be a sweet check lol. Game safe out there!

Welcome to the CLUB lol. We gotta be gamers 4 life so I hope you figure out how to avoid the pain, it's very possible. Until you figure out what positions with your wrists or fingers cause the pain, you should probably avoid long sessions over 1hr. good luck.

Yup Xbox controller are dog Ps4>xbox

lil ggs No it’s because the controllers have different grips

I play PS4 and I have it really bad right now. I think it depends on the position you’re holding the controller in and for how long.

Thomas Rogers it doesn’t happen with my ps4 controller it’s only my Xbox one controller Matter of fact even when I used to play 360 and ps3 it never happened

@@teejaytv3821 happens with my ps4 controller

I think I had to stop playing for about 2weeks straight for the pain to go away when I was at my worst. I was so damn sad lol. Pay attention to yourself after every time you play so you can learn what things cause the pain.

It takes time to get used to it. After awhile, you'll train yourself to keep your wrists straight without braces. I don't use braces anymore and I don't have pain because I don't do the positions that caused the pain like I used to.
