Wrist and forearm pain at the desk
Aching wrists usually come down to angle. Flat, twisted or bent-back wrists for hours add up; getting them into a neutral line is the fix.

FAQ
Should my wrists rest on the desk while typing?
Rest your palms on a support during pauses, but keep wrists floating and neutral while actually typing.
Persistent pain — what then?
Ergonomic changes help prevent strain, but ongoing or sharp pain is worth discussing with a doctor or physiotherapist.
