I have from time to time problems with my wrist but nothing like what you describe. See a doctor about it imho.

i think rsi is a slow gradual problem so a small pain that gets worse. sounds like you have trapped a nerve or you cut off blood to your hand but that should not last.

It is nerve compression in the wrist, lay off gaming and browsing for a few days or risk suffering long term damage. Might be worth grabbing some Iburofen as well, eases and pain and works on the inflammation causing the problem.

Oh and if happened after only 4 hours you might need to consider changing your playing postition or getting a keyboard/mouse setup that puts less pressure on your wrists.

F*ck all these so called "advice". Grab a pain killer or two and play less with your c*ck and you'll be fine. (Well...nothing about here of you not being left handed....)
