I've been drumming for 12 years and this is the first time that I've had pain while drumming, I didn't think there was anything wrong with my technique but I want to be sure. Can you tell me if anything stands out in this video? Aside from the poorly tuned snare

I'm having pain in my right hand, I've seen a physio and they say it's RSI and I shouldn't play drums for a month or even more, which of course doesn't really suit me or my band. The pain occurs in my wrist as well as around my thumb and index finger and sometimes runs up my arm too. I noticed a few months ago that my hand was a little swollen around my thumb and index finger after rehearsal and over the next few weeks I started to get pains about an hour into rehearsal, then last week I couldn't even play for 5 minutes without the pain coming back.
