PHYSICAL THERAPY FOR WRIST ISSUES

Injuries to the wrist are extremely common due to the simple fact that we use this joint in conjunction with our hands for a variety of activities. Our wrists also experience a portion of high impact situations. When we fall, we have a natural tendency to place our hands in front of us in a brace position. This is done an attempt to stop ourselves from falling, so unfortunately, our wrists bear the brunt of the impact when we do fall.

Other injuries come in the form of overuse. Overuse injuries often occur in workplaces where jobs involve repetitive motions. These types of motions can include typing on a keyboard or performing the same motion over and over again on an assembly line in a factory. Additionally, sports injuries involving the wrist are also common and are capable of happening in a variety of sports. These types of injuries commonly keep players away from the sports while they are healing.
