The most common causes of wrist pain
We constantly use our hands. This makes them especially vulnerable to injuries, particularly overuse injuries. While some injuries are unavoidable, knowing how to care for your hands can help prevent some conditions.
Wrist overuse injuries are most common in groups that engage in physically demanding activities, such as manual laborers and jobs that require computer use or repetitive movements.
Falling onto an outstretched arm is the most common cause of traumatic wrist injuries. A wrist fracture is the most common type of injury caused by falling. As with most injuries, the sooner you treat them, the sooner you will be able to find relief!
