I have used a keyboard quite a lot for many years.
Manual typewriters, then IBM electrics, and now the
computer. I haven't had much trouble with my wrist.
I have the habit of resting the wrist often by letting
it flop to the mouse pad between mousing. And sometimes I
just raise my hand for a moment, flexing the wrist.
When you use your mouse, allow your wrist to rest in
between mouse movements. It takes some practice. You might
try one of those wrist rests which I see advertised.
In a word, analyze what you are doing and experiment
with changes in your habits
