Wrist Sprains



Specialist in Hip Surgeon and sports Injury, OrthopaedicsandTrauma.com asked Mr Tim Chesser for a surgeon's tip for you the doctor and he said....

"A sprain is an injury to a ligament. A Strain is an injury to the musculotendous junction of a tendon crossing a joint".

"I see minor strain injury of the wrist most in the formula one racing drivers I look after. They seem to suffer commonly at the end of a season. and it is the ulna collateral ligamant of the wrist that suffers most frequently".

"Beware the driver that has been in an accident. A history of trauma followed by pain with the clinical signs of bruising, swelling, reduced range of movement and tenderness suggests a fracture until proven otherwise. I always exclude a fracture with an x-ray in 2 planes in these circumstances".
