    Re: chronic wrist tendonitis

    I would do what you have suggested. You don't want to put yourself through pain as this may cause it to become acute. The tendonitis has now weakened you muscles which is why you are getting the ache. If you gradually build up your activity then the strength will return and the ache will decrease.
