Wrist injury in Weight Lifting
Wrist Supports
Weightlifting exercises, such as bicep curls and bench presses, can strain the wrists, especially when lifting heavy weights or doing high repetitions. Wrist strain, carpal tunnel syndrome, or tendinitis are common wrist injuries in weightlifting. Wrist strain occurs when your muscle is overstretched or torn. A sudden or repetitive injury may result in wrist tendinitis. Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when you exert extra pressure on the maiden nerve, where you may feel tingling, weakness, and numbness in your wrists.

Severe conditions, such as wrist fracture or carpal tunnel syndrome may require an imaging test to diagnose the symptoms. Your GP may recommend an X-ray or MRI to determine the extent of the injury, allowing for a better treatment plan. For initial symptoms, home remedies and medications are helpful treatments. Rest, apply ice packs, and take anti-inflammatory drugs to reduce pain and swelling. Severe conditions, such as nerve problems or fractures, may require surgery.
The recovery process following a wrist injury depends upon the severity of it. Wrist sprain and other acute injuries may take a few weeks to heal. Nerve problems like carpal tunnel syndrome may take several weeks to several months to heal completely, whereas a wrist fracture may take eight weeks or longer to heal.
You need to follow the instructions of your GP to speed up the recovery process. Experts also suggest some preventive measures to avoid injury recurring. Make sure you lift weight under the guidance of your trainer.
Wrist braces help provide extra support to keep the wrists safe during workouts or weightlifting. They also provide needed compressions to speed up the healing process following a wrist injury. 360 relief provides you with the best wrist supports to help with a wrist injury in weightlifting.
Weight lifting is a challenging workout, and it could harm your hands and wrists. Chronic wrist injuries and pain often occur due to weight lifting. So, it would help if you avoided weight lifting when your wrist is injured and you feel acute pain. Rest your wrists and wear wrist braces to heal them faster.
If you want to prevent wrist injuries and pain, strengthen your arms with wrist bands and mild exercises. Wrist bands or braces will help you to resist pain and prevent injuries. Plus, make sure your wrists are in the most solid possible position.
Wrist bands and wraps help in the prevention of injury and also reduce pain and discomfort. They can help by providing compression, which boosts the blood flow and speeds up the healing time. They can also help to reduce the risk of recurring injuries and further chronic damage.
- Rest your wrist up to 48 hours
- Apply ice to decrease swelling
- Wear wrist bands and braces to reduce the risk of injury.
- Do mild stretching to strengthen your wrists.
- Take anti-inflammatory medicines.
It depends on your injury; either you stretched your wrist muscles or tore your ligaments. However, a wrist sprain takes up to 2 weeks to recover after taking proper rest. The severe injuries take several months to heal with treatment, care and rest.
