I had one flare up that got my attention.
Strengthening is definitely a huge part of it if not most .. more often than not.
A few other things helped, if you have them use your benefits to verify with a physiotherapist or professional.
Wrist support:
M-brace makes an excellent and minimally invasive strap. Good to west while sleeping if you twist it while sleeping. There’s an older version of this which was an angled bracket which works in many positions. Helps relieve from fatigue or not get fatigued as easily.

Laptops are generally awful ergonomics especially if you aren’t as active as may need to be. Invest in an ergonomic keyboards, ergomice, vertical mice, trackpads. Variety is the best ergonomics. Minimize or stop using laptop keyboards. I use Logitech k860, Microsoft ErgoSculpt keyboard, kinesis freestyle widest separation at times, even though they are not mechanical. Slim keys are actually pretty good.
If you have a standing desk use it more often to change up the angles and use different muscles.
Strengthening:
- A gyroball works well. Builds up the core muscles.

- Wrist curls, not too much weight, get advice. Don’t overdo it.
- Finger strengthening using hand grips
- If you can find some hand massage or scraping tools and learn how tonier them they can alleviate a lot of stiffness in hands and forearms.
