Now, another thing that works is to put your hands from hot water to cold water, back and forth. I don't know why it does but that is what the therapist said to do and it works!
Get support for your wrists whenever you do any shoveling. Wear thicker mittens for cushion and you can even get pipe insulation and put it around your shovel handle to make it nice and soft and it will absorb some of the shock.
They sell the little hand wax units at places like Kohls she said. I cannot begin to tell you how good it feels to dip your sore hands in the hot melted wax, then let the wax sit on there till it cools. When you peel it off it feels so great and your hands are baby soft.
Good luck I have to stop type now cause my paws get sore from that too!
Re: dis cold an shovelling of snow is playing havoc
PS..also, check with your pharmacy for these things I use when I work, it is like support hose for your wrists. I don't know what they are called but if you say that, they will probably know. I got mine in the physical therapy department.

so i have been knitting up a storm inbetween everyting...did some gauntlets an now to do some leg warmers...these inbetween the blankets n long sweater coats i am making fi miself ...have a sweater coat in a coral and juss printed a lovely one from Vogue an trying to decide which colour to dweet it...am leaning towards a charcoal grey...
i am taking reams of cotton yarn home wid mi fi Xmas..staying in Mandeville so i plan to mek nuff baby tings while i am there...started wid mi goddawta asking mi fi some warm tings for her newborn...realised i could knit better ones and use cotton wich is warm when knitted up an better for Jamaica climate
I remember being cool in Mandeville even in June, so your beautiful warm things will be needed and appreciated this time of year! Come to think of it, I remember having to really bundle up in Little Bay in January because I was cold there by the seaside.
i am hoping that if i take some knitting to do i will keep my sanity..i hate staying at other people\s home/..being bi-polar sometimes i juss dont want to be bothered so staying on my own affords me to give in to the bi-polar... but mi girlfren build har home dung deh an is a yearly ting much less wen mi go yaad an she come visit me wheeva mi deh...so now she an mi goddawta jine forces ...so mi promise Christmas wid dem...Jah help me live thru it widdout shooting everybody
The crocheting will be a good thing for you to have. I used to feel so inspired when I would sit and bead in yard. I couldn't wait to finish one thing so I could start a next so often I would start a next so I wouldn't forget an idea. More fun than taking notes...
Last week I started doing bead crochet. It is very hard on my hands! I can feel it all coming from my wrist, especially the left one. I am working on keeping it straight and as soon as I finish making beads or beading, whatever, I slap on the wrist sock and the wrist brace I got in therapy. Between all that and cold/hot water, it all manages to improve so I can keep doing what I'm doing. I tried to send you this link in a Pm but you no have that pawt turned on so...
I don't wear it for long, even just a little bit after I do any hand work will straighten everything out enough to get blood flowing in the right direction and once that happens the pain goes away and I can take it off. A lot of the time the pain is caused by the lack of blood flow, and the route starts in your head and neck, flows down the arm past the wrist and into the fingers and around and back up the arm. If everything is not flowing great, slows everything down which causes swelling & painful hands. At least for me. So, my regimen starts with a few stretches and exercise things to adding the straightening brace for a while after doing the hot/cold thing. Today I was using snow and rubbing it on my wrists and it felt good on the swelling.
