Wrist/Elbow sprain

Commonly caused by a fall or sporting injury, a sprained wrist is where the ligaments of the wrist and hand have become strained or torn. Severe sprains should be examined medically to rule out broken bones. All Sprains need RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation) therapy for the first 48-72 hours. Your Physical Therapist will assist in removing inflammation from the wrist, strengthening the ligaments and restoring mobility to the wrist. Untreated sprains commonly lead to injuries in other joints and muscles surrounding the sprained joint.
