Everything you said was spot on Vasko... The brace is just called a wrist brace, Massaging the areas you described was excellent advice. Helps to get blood and oxygen circulated into the muscles and tendons (end of muscle attaching to the bone) Also when in severe pain, use ice wrapped in a piece of cloth or towel (never ice directly on skin) for 20 mins and moist heat for 20 mins. Alternating back and forth. Always start with cold and end in cold..

Very helpful. Especially for when I was growing up I heard the saying over and over again "NO PAIN NO GAIN". Let's be smart and listen to our bodies. Thank you Vasko.

Ive literally just started playing and today I played for like 3 to 4 hours with my wrist bent like you showed. So, I’ve been in pain since a while, which got me to this video. Thank you so much. Also, I was thinking I’ve finally found the right hand placement for me. Couldn’t have been farther from the truth. Need to figure out a better way. Might even buy the brace to train my hand because I already have upper left arm issues.

Thank you so so much! My hand is getting better. :) This was so helpful.

thank you so much for this... I started playing about a month ago and the harder the chords got, the more my wrist hurt. I was keeping my arm too close to my body like you showed and it made my wrist bend too much. I was afraid I'd have to stop playing or I'd get my wrist hurt badly. I will try the exercises and if there's no improvement I will get a brace. Thank you for the great video.

Vasko - love that you’re doing Q&A! It adds another dimension to all this other great content you put out! I’d love to ask a question for consideration: Through your videos I’ve seen you play a couple of different ukuleles. Could you please share some information about your instruments, why you chose them, what you like about them, etc.? I started with a soprano but am looking to branch out to others. I know instrument choices are largely subjective but making a choice can be very overwhelming! It’d be wonderful to hear your perspective and personal preferences.

Truth: listen to your body when it whispers and it won't scream at you! My hand issue is that they have never been independent be from another. What exercise or scales can I do? Barres are hard because both hands make the same movement.

Oh my gosh thank you so much! I had no idea that’s what I was doing wrong and was making my wrist hurt! Thankfully I have a wrist brace that is making a world of a difference!

Hello Vasko ! Maybe you don't remember me. It's Damien from France. Your Channel is really cool and It's pleasure to listen to you again . You are the Best man ! Maybe you're not a doctor but for me you're better Than a painkiller. Peace full Guy. Peace Bro.

Thank you!! These are very helpful tips

Thanks this helped me a bunch. ❤I’m a newbie and playing a lot! I just need shoulder help now bc there is pain in neck and shoulder on left arm😅

I enjoyed this very much. It was very helpful too. I would love it if you continue with this type of video!

😄😆😄 What a big surprise for me!!! & I really love this Q&A content. Thank you so much & please continue it, Vasil! This is my first question for you: I really want to learn how to unlock the entire fretboard, as well as inversion chords. Do I need to go through scales or is there any better way to approach them?! I don‘t consider myself being a solo player as I love singing too much! But I think knowing the fretboard will be a plus in my musical learning journey... & last, 😂😂😂 I‘m not a Doctor! Go to see a doctor! most fun & sincere adviser! Appreciated your tips & sharing experience! Best!!! 💟

when I am suffering this when I play chords on ukulele I searched on line and google suggest this video. And it is life savior. Thank you so much.

I'm a beginner and this info is helpful. Thanks!

Thank you for the video. Seems to be a common problem.

Great advice! I already have a wrist brace, so I'll just start wearing it while playing to work on my wrist posture! Thanks!!

hey, I am writing you comments through the translator, forgive me, please, if something is not clear. I would like to say that you are well done and thanks to you I play uke. thank you

I have this problem and I'm prone to other joint pain. Does anyone get this on the strumming hand instead? I think it's the same cause. I think it's also related to joint hypermobility...

Thanks for sharing, Vasko! I have the same pain (and habit of bending my wrist). I'm getting a brace asap. Cheers!

Great vidoe, thank you so much

Thank you so much!!

Omg you're so cute😭🥺😍 specially the way you speak🥺💕

This is really helpful! Thank you so much ❤️

This is definitely a helpful video and I hope you will continue answering questions in videos. It’s a great way to make your subscribers feel more engaged with you. You know my question already. I will try to think of a different one. 😉

I do the same warm up on the uke too! Yay, we are Warm Up Buddies! 😂

Wrist pain is a thing that I've been feeling a little bit lately, especially by repeating the bar chords.. it is sure that the tip of the wrist exercises before playing will be useful. Thank you Vasko. By the way, I'm curious to know what is the little simple song used in the background of this video? ☺

Useful information, thank you.

Thank you so much this really helped me!

Thanks man!

My bells on

"If you're feeling pain in your wrist, go to the doctor" Me: *cries in non-insured American* Seriously though man, thank you so much for the advice!! I'm bummed about not being able to play for a while, but thank you for showing us exercises we can still do :)

Any idea why my fret hand cramps sometimes while I am playing? It is not in my wrist or fingers, just in the hand itself.

Ooh is this new content?
