Hand/Wrist Pain
| Hand/Wrist Pain |
Take a closer look at your keyboard and mouse position...
Your wrist is a complex joint made up of eight small bones between your forearm and hand. They are connected with tough bands called ligaments that attach to your forearm bones and hand bones.
Injuries to any of the parts of your wrist can cause pain and affect wrist and hand mobility. The most common cause is repetitive strain injuries. Any activity that involves repetitive wrist motion from swinging a golf club or typing on a computer can inflame the soft tissues around joints especially for prolonged periods of time.
The most common and well-known condition is carpal tunnel syndrome.
This condition typically arises from increased pressure on the median nerve, which passes through the carpal tunnel, a passageway in the palm side of your wrist.
Hand pain can also be indicative of a pinched nerve in your neck due to a herniated disc. The best way to treat hand/wrist pain is properly diagnosing the origin of pain. From there, carpal manipulation and physical therapy can effectively treat most soft tissue injuries to the wrist and hand.
