Wrist pain

Wrist pain refers to discomfort or soreness in the wrist area, which can result from injury, repetitive movements, or underlying conditions like arthritis or tendinitis. It may feel like sharp, aching, or throbbing pain, and sometimes includes swelling, stiffness, or reduced movement. The pain occurs when the structures within the wrist—such as bones, tendons, or nerves—become irritated or damaged. Proper diagnosis by a healthcare professional helps determine the cause, guiding effective treatment options like rest, ice, medication, or physical therapy to relieve discomfort and restore function.
