Understanding Wrist and Hand Injuries
Wrist and hand injuries often result from repetitive stress or trauma, leading to swelling, pain, and difficulty performing movements such as walking, running, or jumping.
Symptoms and Their Impact
Symptoms of wrist and hand injuries can significantly affect your quality of life:
- Persistent pain or discomfort in the affected area.
- Tingling or numbness.
- Weakness or loss of strength.
- Reduced or limited range of motion.
- Difficulty performing tasks that require fine motor skills.
- Swelling and tenderness around the affected area, which may worsen with activity.
Early detection and intervention are essential to prevent symptom progression and achieve optimal recovery outcomes.
What Causes Minor Wrist and Hand Injuries?
Injuries can be triggered by several factors, including:
Overuse and repetitive activities: These can lead to excessive strain on specific muscle groups.
Insufficient recovery: Previous muscle injuries can weaken the affected areas, increasing the risk of reinjury.
Previous injuries: May result in scar tissue formation or compensatory movement patterns.
Biomechanical irregularities: Abnormal mechanics or structure can heighten the risk of injury.
Degenerative changes: Joint wear and tear due to aging or arthritis.
Lack of conditioning: Weak muscles are more prone to injury.
Poor posture or technique: Whether during everyday activities or while playing sports, improper form can lead to strain and injury.
Comprehensive Evaluation
At ActivAxion, our personalized care plans focus not only on relieving symptoms but also on addressing the root cause of your condition—unlike many therapies that target symptoms alone.
Our evaluation process includes a thorough examination of the injured area, an assessment of your movement patterns to identify compensations, and a review of your medical history to accurately evaluate and understand the extent of your injury. We take a holistic approach and combine it with lifestyle guidance. It’s essential to identify what’s contributing to your pain and why progress may have stalled.
