Whether you're a gamer or an office worker, you should not use the keyboard wrist rest to actually REST your wrist: rather it is meant to keep your wrists straight (no wrist extension) and thereby reduce the pressure on the carpal tunnel whilst limiting the strain on the wrist extensor and the wrist flexor muscles (extensor carpi and flexor carpi).
In this wrist rest review, I will tell you about the pros and cons of a wrist rest for keyboard from an ergonomic stand point. If it is misused, it can increase the risk of ulnar and radial wrist deviation, which is a source of lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow).
The same reasoning applies to your mouse pad: you should float on it, not rest on it!
