Wrist

Your wrist is a busy, intricate joint that we rely on constantly, so pain or stiffness here quickly affects daily life. Problems range from nerve-related symptoms like carpal tunnel syndrome to tendon irritation, sprains, and recovery after a fracture. Numbness, weakness, and difficulty gripping are common complaints.

Physiotherapy helps restore movement and strength, calm irritated nerves and tendons, and guide a safe return to work and activity — often using splinting, nerve-gliding, and graded loading exercises. In this section you'll find evidence-based assessment and management guidance for the main wrist conditions, from carpal tunnel and De Quervain's to post-fracture and post-surgical rehab, written for clinicians and easy for patients to follow.
