Common Issues Affecting the Elbow, Wrist, and Hand:
Elbow, wrist, and hand pain can stem from various causes, including carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, and arthritis. Carpal tunnel syndrome affects approximately 6 percent of adults, resulting in pain, weakness, and numbness in the hand. Repetitive motions like typing, using power tools, or playing musical instruments can contribute to this condition. Tennis elbow occurs due to overuse, causing inflammation in the tendons that connect the forearm muscles to the elbow. Similarly, golfer's elbow affects the inside of the elbow instead of the outer side. Arthritis, including the most common type—osteoarthritis—brings pain, inflammation, and stiffness as cartilage wears away and bones rub against each other. Fractures to the elbow, wrist, or hand can also lead to pain, requiring rest and immobilization during the healing process.
Physical Therapy for Elbow, Wrist, and Hand Pain:
Seeking professional help from a physical therapist at Rehabilitation Specialists can significantly alleviate your discomfort and aid in your recovery journey. For carpal tunnel syndrome, our physical therapists will guide you through stretching exercises to improve flexibility in the affected areas. We may also utilize heat and cold therapy to reduce inflammation and pain, while providing valuable education on wrist positions and ergonomic techniques for everyday tasks.
When it comes to arthritis, our comprehensive physical therapy program aims to reduce pain, increase range of motion, and strengthen the supporting muscles around the affected joints. Passive modalities such as electric stimulation and ultrasound may be incorporated to alleviate pain and improve overall mobility.
For individuals with tennis elbow or golfer's elbow, our experienced therapists prioritize pain reduction through targeted exercises, muscle stimulation, taping for support, and ice massage. By customizing treatment plans to your unique needs, we ensure a holistic approach to healing and rehabilitation.
