YMMV
Having used split keyboards for several years now, I can say that they helped a LOT with my wrist pain. If you're looking to try out a split keyboard without breaking the bank, I'd recommend buying one used. I'm typing this right now on a Keychron K15 Pro; it has an "Alice" layout, kind of a compromise between a standard and a split keyboard and usually isn't as expensive. That's another good entry point if you're split-curious.

I'm going to explain this poorly, but on a normal keyboard, you bend your arms together to bring your hands over the keyboard, rotate your wrists back outwards to spread your fingers over the keys, and usually also tilt your wrist up to match your keyboard elevation if you use keyboard feet.
On a split keyboard, with the insides slightly raised and tilted inwards, your shoulders, elbows, and wrists rest at a much more natural angle. It's been great for my shoulder pain.
