I totally agree about the importance of being strong. But I don't think that dead lifts are the only way to get strong enough.
You need the upper body strength to avoid supporting yourself on your wrists. They should just "float". Having good forearm support helps, but it's not enough if you're weak.
And core strength helps prevent back pain. Along with a chair that helps you sit up straight, and provides lumbar support.
Wrist curls and reverse wrist curls have also helped me a lot, for both wrists and elbows. I also use self-practice wrist locks for strengthening and stretching. Or with a rubber torsion rod.
