Yes, physical therapy can be very effective for managing chronic wrist pain. It helps by improving the strength, flexibility, and range of motion in the muscles and tendons around your wrist, which can reduce pain and prevent further injury.
It sounds like you should be evaluated by a Board-Certified Fellowship-Trained Hand surgeon.
I'd be happy to see you.

Occupational therapy would be better suited for chronic wrist pain.
