After a wrist fracture it is common to experience:  * Finger stiffness * ⁠Decreased wrist extension/flexion * ⁠Decreased supination (palm up) and pronation (palm down) * Wrist and hand weakness * ⁠Difficulty and discomfort with lifting and weight bearing In the initial   🎯Steer clear from these limitations with tendon glide exercises and active wrist ROM exercises for a smoother recovery.   👍 In later stages of recovery, focus on unconscious neuromuscular activities to aid wrist ligament healing. Include exercises like tossing balls, or using games on your smartphone to enhance proprioceptive input.  🔔 Turn on post notifications so that you never miss a post!  #physicaltherapy #reels #trending #fitgoals #fitness #fit Wrist Therapy Exercises, Wrist Fracture Exercises, Wrist Surgery Recovery, Wrist Extension Activities, Finger Extension Exercises, Wrist Fracture, Sprained Wrist, Physiotherapy Exercises, Wrist Stretches

Eli Yovits OTR/L, CHT on Instagram: "✨Wrist exercises with the mediball✨

☄️This is a 2 lb mediball. All exercises can be graded down by using a regular ball with no extra weight, or graded up by increasing the weight in the balance.

1️⃣Weight bearing onto the ball on a table with circles in both directions. You can get weight bearing benefits and some wrist extension

2️⃣Grade up by doing the same exercise on the wall. You need increased shoulder and wrist stability for this

3️⃣At the end of the last exercise, lock your shoulder and elbow and slowly roll your fingers down the ball until you have composite extension stretch. Now you have weight bearing, stabilization, and wrist extension stretch all in one!

Eli Yovits OTR/L, CHT on Instagram: "💥Radial Nerve Palsy Orthosis💥 ✳️ A patient with Radial Nerve Palsy will typically present with absent or significantly weakened wrist extension/digital MP extension/Thumb extension. *️⃣This can have a major impact on functional activities, as grasping even light items can be extremely difficult due to the inability to extend the wrist and fingers. ✳️ One of the ways that hand therapists have addressed this over the years is with the use of a dorsal based dynamic orthosis which acts as a replacement for the absent extensor tendons, bringing the fingers back up after a grasping or pinching motion is made. *️⃣The orthosis in the reel is a low profile design that has custom leather loops attached to elastic and velcro to allow for easy donning and do Radial Nerve, Profile Design, Nerve, Custom Leather, Low Profile, Over The Years, Motion, Elastic, Leather
