I have suspicions that my wrist pain was because of gout. My doctor only seemed to care whether or not I've ever had a full-on attack, but I think it's plausible that there could be negative effects short of that. My wrist pain went away when I modified my diet, which I was advised to do anyway.
I'm sure I made other changes to my life during that period of time so I can't say for certain that it wasn't some other change that caused the pain to go away. I also know that wrist pain can go away on its own without any intervention. I wanted to leave this comment here in case it helps others; I would have been very grateful if simply modifying my diet would have helped me as I tried many things during that period of time.
I'd also be interested in getting feedback from those more knowledgeable as I don't have much of a medical background. I did find a study - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4101606/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4101606/ which may support what I'm saying, but I might be completely wrong.
