What is Wrist Pain?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A wrist joint<\/a> is a joint that connects the hand to the forearm. A wrist fracture takes place when a person broke one of the small (carpal) bones in this joint or commonly, the distal radius, which is twice the size of the two bones that make up the forearm. In addition, this bone often breaks on the lower end part, which is near to where it connects the bones of the hand and thumb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Injuries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Sudden impacts.<\/strong> Wrist injuries often occur when you fall forward onto your outstretched hand. This can cause sprains, strains and even fractures. Thus, a scaphoid fracture involves a bone on the thumb side of the wrist, and this type of fracture may not show up on X-rays immediately after the injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Repetitive stress.<\/strong> Any activity do involves repetitive wrist motion \u2014 from hitting a tennis ball or bowing a cello to driving cross-country \u2014 these can inflame the tissues around joints or cause stress fractures, especially when you perform the movement for hours on end without a break. De Quervain’s disease is a repetitive stress injury that causes pain at the base of the thumb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prevention<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It’s impossible to prevent the unforeseen events that often cause wrist injuries. Even so, these basic tips may offer some protection:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Build bone strength.<\/strong> Getting adequate amounts of calcium \u2014 1,000 milligrams a day for most adults and at least 1,200 milligrams a day for women over age 50, \u2014 can help prevent fractures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prevent falls.<\/strong> Falling forward onto an outstretched hand is the main cause of most wrist injuries. To help prevent falls, wear sensible shoes. Remove home hazards. Light up your living space. And install grab bars in your bathroom and handrails on your stairways, if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use protective gear for athletic activities.<\/strong> Wear wrist guards for high-risk activities, such as football, snowboarding and rollerblading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pay attention to ergonomics.<\/strong> If you spend long periods at a keyboard, take regular breaks. When you type, keep your wrist in a relaxed, neutral position. An ergonomic keyboard and foam or gel wrist support may help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steps for Treatment and Remedies:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes we may encounter events where we do disruption to the joints, which results in fractures. Or could be an interosseous membrane, (a thick dense fibrous sheet of connective tissue that spans the space between two bones forming a type of syndesmosis joint<\/em>), which is the membrane between the owner and the radius that contracts and be caught in that kind of position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
