I'm up to about 110 consecutive push ups, should I continue trying to increase that number?

My initial reaction was to ignore it, but I don't want to make it worse. Should I try strenghtening my wrists?

Thanks for any ideas. I tried searching for wrist pain without any luck.
I think my Grandma warned me once, "Youngin, if your wrist hurts, stop wackin it, or switch hands"

On a serious note...lol, if your wrist hurt from putting your palms on the ground, do pushups from fists, keeping your wrists straight
