I've seen several posts, but I can't reach CS on this - is anybody else having tingling, numbness and wrist pain with their Galaxy watch? This is recent - I've had the watch over a year, but waking up to my hand numb at night, it feels weak today and gets better when I take my watch off. What have you found that works? 

It's not too tight, no changes to it, charged fine - not overcharged. Any suggestions?

I've seen lots of them that Blew up. I cheated and give my watches to my Kids. Lol

Sounds like you need to loosen your watch or you're a hypochondriac

I've noticed this too. I tried setting the heart rate monitor to always be measuring and within an hour my whole hand was numb. So first thing I would try is set that to manual measurement and see if it helps.

It's not hypochondria. At first I thought I was experiencing carpal tunnel until I realized I changed that setting on my watch. And there's 19 pages of people complaining about it here:
