I turned 50 this year and have been playing for 37 years. Lately I’ve had some soreness that may be carpal tunnel or arthritis. I’ve looked up both, and they both are treated in similar ways – anti-inflammatory drugs and herbs, exercises and stretches, braces, massages, hot-cold treatments, ergonomics. I also tend to play my nylon string a bit more than my heavy-stringed acoustic, and my lowest-action electric. Any older players out there have any kind of regiment or program or tool or system that’s working for them? Is anybody getting treated medically?
