Wrist
Pain
Our wrists are made up of 8 carpal bones
and a intricate web of nerves and ligaments. These 8
bones support an area called the carpal tunnel. This
tunnel contains tendons and the median nerve.
One of the most common sites of injury
is the wrist. The wrists are used in a variety of different
sports such as badminton, tennis, boxing and are also
extensively used when we type and in certain occupations.
This repetitive motion of certain activities makes some
people more susceptible to wrist pain.
The majority of falls also result in wrist
pain as we naturally outstretch our hands to cushion
our fall. This section will explain the symptoms, causes
and treatment options for all types of wrist pain. Use
