Wristwatch: Navigating Wrist Pain and Repetitive Strain Injuries
October is a month of transition, where the warm embrace of summer gives way to the crisp chill of autumn. Yet, for many, this shift in seasons brings about something other than colorful foliage and pumpkin-spiced treats—it brings the onset of wrist pain, repetitive strain injuries (RSIs), and conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome. In this month’s blog, we’ll explore the hidden dangers lurking in seemingly mundane tasks, shedding light on the occupational hazards faced by hairdressers, ice cream shop workers, students in dormitories, and those working remotely from home offices with unergonomic setups. At ReclaimAbility, we have seen our fair share of wrist and hand pain and offer multiple services— like ultrasound and fluoroscopy guided injections—to help alleviate your suffering. Grab your wristwatch, because it’s time to delve into the world of wrist health!
