Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain and swelling in the wrist is likely to be due to inflammation of the joint or tendons. It can happen due to overuse also. It is not related to high blood pressure. Taking mild pain killers, doing a hot compress and giving rest to the wrist will help.
I hope this answers your query.
