Default the back of my left hand hurts

when I've been playing ffr the past 2 days and even just typing I feel a dull pain in the back of my left hand. And it would get pretty bad when I'm playing a long difficult song on ffr. Should I take a few days off from using it?

Yes, definitely. Even when I play FFR now my carpal is still acting up and I haven't touched actual rhythm gaming in months.

You could be developing Carpal Tunnel, or you may just have a cramp in your left wrist. Get something for the cramp/Carpal Tunnel or let your hands rest for a few days.

in all seriousness though if it is CTS it won't feel better in a few days? And if it is feeling better I'm probably fine?

And once I have CTS do I pretty much always have that pain in my hand when I use it?

Pretty much. If its serious enough pain you may need to get surgery to get it fixed.

ive had carpal tunnel syndrome for the past 9 months. sometimes it feels like its improving but when i start gainning confidence and use my wrists for computer or other things it gets bad again.

The doctors all told me it would go away if i just keep taking my pills but i have this feeling they dont know **** cause if u read online cts doesnt last too long unless u need surgery.

If ur like me ull want to play ffr even though it hurts like hell, and it'll never go away. Just remember ice can be your best friend.

I've been experiencing the same pain but on my right hand.

Whenever it started hurting I was like FBGM (**** bitches, get money) I'm going to play ITG. When my legs hurt and I was drenched in sweat, I was like FBGM let's go play some FFR. What a life.

You've been masturbating too much. I can tell from experience.

My left hand has the same problem, but that's only recently, if I type normal or anything it won't hurt, but if I have to push fast streams while playing FFR, it hurts like a bitch. Looks like I should quit playing. :/

having muscular pain is nothing, when ur nerve hurts u immediatly know it cause the pain is deeper. ice works on both i guess.

Same here. Try using a different keyboard. When I play FFR on my 11" laptop, the harder songs make my left hand hurt. Playing MGD on my desktop/full size keyboard doesn't have that effect.
