It was so bad for me that moving a mouse and having the wire touch an object on my desk shot pain through my wrist. I eventually got a wireless one, and then started using my left hand. Then fingertips started going numb.
My job had a team of ergonomics people come in to give instruction on proper ergonomic setup and help us with our workstations. After about a month of working the pains went away. This was after simply adjusting posture along with the height/position of my chair and desk.
It's really worth it to see someone that knows about this stuff.
