Chiropractic Treatment For Wrist Injuries and Pain
A wrist injury resulting from a car accident upsets a fine-tuned operation. The ligaments in the wrist are similar to tape in the way that they stabilize joints by connecting bones together.
Forceful bending of ligaments that exceeds their elasticity and range of motion causes sprains during an accident. These are known as hyperextension injuries, ranging from a minimal stretch to torn ligaments. Most sprains go untreated by people “waiting it out.” However, the long-term effects of not treating a wrist injury following a car accident could lead to the loss of functionality in your hand as time goes on.
A wrist fracture is most common from a broken radius bone, which lies two inches above the wrist joint. This is the most frequently broken bone in the arm. Setting the bone and putting it in a cast is the standard treatment. However, in the event that your wrist has multiple fractures, surgery may be required. If you injure your wrist in an accident or suffer from chronic pain, contact our Conyers Chiropractors to schedule an appointment for treatment
