Our chiropractic office in Milmont Park provides treatment for wrist and shoulder pain using advanced therapy techniques commonly used in sports medicine—but designed for everyday patients as well. Whether your wrist pain is caused by repetitive movements like typing, manual labor, or recreational activities such as tennis or pickleball, we focus on identifying and addressing the root cause of your discomfort.
Wrist pain can develop from repetitive motion, injury, poor ergonomics, or age-related wear and tear. When left untreated, ongoing stiffness or mild pain in the wrist can sometimes contribute to strain in the elbow, shoulder, or even the neck due to compensation patterns in the body
Common Conditions Associated with Wrist Pain:
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Compression of the median nerve causing numbness, tingling, or pain,
often worse at night. - Arthritis (Osteoarthritis or Rheumatoid Arthritis): Joint inflammation leading to stiffness,
swelling, and reduced mobility. - Tendonitis or Tendon Injuries: Inflammation from overuse, often causing sharp or localized
pain. - Ganglion Cysts: Benign, fluid-filled lumps near joints or tendons that may press on nearby nerves.
- De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis: Inflammation affecting the tendons at the base of the thumb.
- Circulatory Conditions (such as Raynaud’s): Reduced blood flow that may cause pain,
numbness, or color changes in the hands.
Symptoms That May Accompany Wrist Pain:
- Weakness in the hand or forearm
- Reduced range of motion
- Swelling, warmth, or bruising
- Clicking or popping sensations
If you are experiencing persistent wrist discomfort, early evaluation can help prevent further strain and
support long-term joint health.
