Sports Injury & Pain Management Clinic of New York

A wrist injury can be very painful. A wrist tendon injury can have long-term consequences, too. Playing certain sports can contribute toward needing such remedies as boxing or golf wrist injury treatment at our sports and pain management of Manhattan. Get effective wrist injury treatment for a scaphoid sprain and other painful wrist conditions before they lead to further complications. Come to our pain management center and make your appointment today to get your pain evaluation and treatment.

Eight small bones known as carpals make up your wrists. These small bones support and protect a tube in your wrist that encases tendons and nerves. Because of the delicacy and intricacy of these bones and tubes, wrist injury is very common, usually from repetitive motions or injuries from falls. The scaphoid bone is one of the most tender bones and a leading cause of scaphoid sprains.

Depending on the type of injury, your wrist pain can vary greatly. Your pain might be dull and throbbing, sharp and intense, presenting gradually and worsening over time, or appearing suddenly. Careful communication with our sports pain management doctor in NY makes for the most effective wrist injury treatment plan.

Causes of Wrist Injuries and Pain

Because you use your hands so much, wrists are particularly susceptible to many different types of injury. Your wrist pain may be caused by:

Sprains, which are tears in your ligaments
Strains, which are tears in your tendons
Tendonitis from overuse
Arthritis
Bursitis
Gout or pseudo gout
Dislocation
Hand injury
A fracture resulting in a misshapen joint
Repetitive stress fractures
Ganglion cyst
Swelling due to a damaged joint capsule
Carpal tunnel syndrome
Scaphoid sprain
Boxing wrist injury
Golf wrist injury

Symptoms of a wrist tendon injury include pain, numbness, tingling, bruising and swelling. Gentle support and early treatment keep most injuries from leading to chronic conditions.

Risk Factors for Wrist Injury

While anyone can develop wrist issues, you may be at a higher risk if you participate in sports or other athletic pursuits or have repetitive motions in your jobs. Professional or regular golfing can lead to the need for golf wrist injury treatment, something your doctor performs often. Boxing wrist injury treatment is another common service your sports medicine physician provides.

Elderly individuals or those with an unsteady gait can fall more frequently, putting wrists at risk. Pregnancy, obesity, diabetes, gout and rheumatoid arthritis cause swelling and pressure on the carpal bones and the enclosed tubing, weakening it and making it more susceptible to injury.
