I have to say that my wrist and thumb hurt when i use squeeze bottles a lot. The oly thing is to stop and flex your wrist between every few cookies. The constant pressure puts a strain on you.
Happy baking

After a couple of hours everything hurts! All you have is a sore wrist? Sore wrist, hands, back, neck, feet, eye strain, shoulder pain from trying to talk on the phone at the same time . . . the only thing that helps is frequent brakes and a couple of yoga postures. Stopping and getting grounded to go into a doward facing dog helps with my back especially.
Happy baking!
I think squeeze bottles require extra pressure to use. Try to switch to piping bags if you can. They are easy to use with practice. I seal the ends with elastic bands after I fill them and so you can put them down and walk away any time you need a break, just as easily.
My wrists hurt sometimes at night, but hand exercises (yes, I am THAT sad! 
) work well. Even a few minutes a day squeezing those rubber stress-relief balls are awesome for strengthening your hand muscles.

LOL, that sounds all too familiar, Mamas. I would suggest a few breaks in between cookies as well. That usually helps for me.
My wrist and hand get sore alot too.
What really helps is my wax bath. I got it a few years ago and it really helps for sore wrist and hands.(I also have arthritis) It feels great and I highly recommend them. I soak my hands and then put the gloves on(mine came with it). WONDERFUL!
I am almost done with my regular cookies and am going to treat myself tonight before I start my roll out cookies.

Be careful. Last month I had surgery on my hand, I had same symtoms.
It was from decorating. I am suppose to go in for the other hand I just keep putting it off.
Unfortunately it doesn't just go away. Try using a wrist band.
Okay, that's scary! I sometimes wake up in the middle of the night and my hands are numb (asleep, hardly any sensation, tingly like "pins and needles" a bit)....is that something that I should be really worried about?? What advice did your doctor give you besides using a wrist band? How did you know you needed surgery?
Sorry, hope these questions aren't too personal...it just never really concerned me at all before.
If you are waking up at night with tingling in your hand. Waking up in thr morning and your hand is so numb it takes a while before it functions.
By all means see your doctor. There is a test they do to see if you need surgery.
Ther surgery is a piece of cake (pardon the pun). I started fulling using my hand after two days. I had to keep reminding my self to be careful because of the stitches.
What a difference, I would do it over in a heartbeat. The doctor did say it's possible that it can come back. At the first sign I will wear a brace and if my wrist start to hurt I take a break.
Thank you SO much to Luvmygirl for starting this thread and Janette for her answers. I can't believe that I have been brushing off the night numbness as simply "poor circulation". I never considered carpel tunnel as a possibility at all.
Your kindness and amazing information through this forum has probably just saved my wrists and my career in this business. I can't thank you enough! I have just made an appointment for my doctor in the New Year.
I have 4 orders left for this year, but I'm certainly going to have to cut back and take everyone's advice...or I'll lose the ability to pipe completely.
Thank you,
