Apple watch3 causes unbearable pain in arm
I have not expected such a product from Apple, i bough my Apple iWatch 3 (42mm with a Sport Band) on new year 2018 and soon after 2 weeks its started hurting my wrist and later after 3 week pain gradually started hurting badly.
My new iWatch 3 has the GPS feature. I don’t use it to its potential; instead, using it primarily as a watch (8 hr during day time) and occasionally using apps & call feature to read/send texts.
I have no skin irritation/rash issues nor is my band too tight. Like others in this forum, my pain is an aching pain which is deep in my wrist and radiates up my arm which should be neurogenic in nature. I’ve tried everything, wearing it on the opposite arm as suggested by apple support, flipping the watch so that it’s on the anterior vs. posterior surface of my wrist, I’ve turned off the heart rate monitor, minimized the haptics and still continue to experience the pain. The only relief comes after I remove the watch for several hours to a day.
I have an open case with apple support and hope that with our growing numbers that Apple will take heed and develop a resolve. In the meantime, I am so sad that I cannot wear my Apple Watch 3!
