there is a thread on back problems so i thought i would start one on wrist and hand problems- did not want to take over the other thread. i would like to get your thoughts on this subject.
i absolutley love everything about dentistry and want to become a dentist so badly, but fear having trouble with my hands and wrist. i am in my mid 20s' and occasionally my hand and wrist hurt such as when i write too much. sometimes my dominant finger joints (thumb and pointer finger) ache when it is going to rain or when the weather gets cold. i do not have arthritis now but it does run in my family (as well as hand tremors which i also do not have as of yet). should i reconsider dentistry as a career??
