Apple Watch wrist/hand pain

I have had my Apple Watch for 3 years now and I believe it is causing pain in my wrist and hand. I do not wear the band tight but snug enough for it to read. It is also a stretchy band so it moves with my wrist. My wrist is to the point where if I flex my wrist down it shoots pain throughout my hand. The pain starts right where my watch sits and on the tendon. No this is not a sports injury or a job related injury. It started a year into wearing the watch and has gotten worse which is why I believe it is the watch. I’m reading other people are having the same issue. I feel like there is a bigger issue relating to the watch being bad for your health. Idk looking for answers here!

My new Apple Watch Series 9/cellular makes my wrist and hand ache. When I take it off, the aching goes away. It doesnt matter how loose it is on my wrist. I have used multiple bands with the same effects. I’m concerned about EMF side effects causing this.
