Wrist injury in Rugby
Wrist Supports
Wrist injuries are common in rugby, and they occur when players fall onto their outstretched hands. Besides this, direct blow, overuse and improper throwing techniques can also be a cause. Traumatic injuries include strains, tendon inflammation, ligament tears, and fractures. Chronic injuries include tendonitis, stress fractures, and nerve injuries. Common symptoms of wrist injuries are pain, swelling, and weakness; however, the symptoms may be worse in severe injuries.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, NSAIDs, help reduce pain and inflammation. Your GP may recommend surgery if you suffer from chronic injuries, such as a stress fracture and nerve damage.
Mild injuries may recover within a few weeks with conservative measures. Moderate to severe injuries can take longer to heal. Consult your GP before playing. Athletes, especially rugby players, should follow some prescribed preventive measures to avoid injury risks in the field.

Rugby is a trendy sport with a high rate of injury. However, a fall into a hand or overstretching causes wrist injuries such as sprains and strains. That’s why you should wear protective wrist and hand supports and braces. They may help you to prevent injuries and also help you to heal faster.
An injured wrist might cause:
- Sharp pain
- Swelling
- Bruising
- Weakness

A moderate wrist sprain can be treated at home with proper treatment and care. Rest for the next 48 hours, don’t move your wrist. Avoid tasks that require you to move your wrists, such as playing tennis, rugby or typing.
