Do Wrist Supports & Wrist Guards Really Stop Wrist Pain?
Why does wrist pain happen? And how do Tiger Paw Wrist Supports help stop and or prevent that ache?
The wrist is an unusual joint because stiffness or even fusion causes relatively little difficulty, while if it is wobbly and unstable there can't be real problems. The wrist provides the platform from which the fine motions of the fingers operate. It is vital that this platform be firm.
The 8 wrist bones form a rather crude joint that is very limited in motion compared with, for example, the shoulder, but which is strong, and stable. Almost no normal human activities require the wrist to be bent all the way back or all the way forward, and the fingers don't work as well as when the wrist is fully flexed or fully extended.
The wrist platform works well when the wrist is bent upward just a bit. When the wrist is in good position, you can push and pull most efficiently. Looking down your arm, the thumb should be on an imaginary horizontal line going straight down the middle of your forearm.
The wrist is very frequently involved in rheumatoid arthritis, and the side of the wrist by the thumb is very commonly involved in osteoarthritis.
In "carpal tunnel syndrome"usually the squeezing results from too much inflammatory tissue. The cause can be tennis playing, a blow to the front of the wrist, gymnastics, bowling, rheumatoid arthritis, or many other activities that repeatedly flex and extend the wrist. In addition to wrist pain, this syndrome can cause pains to shoot down into the fingers or up into the arm; usually there is a numb feeling in the fingers, as if they were asleep.
You can diagnose this syndrome pretty well yourself. The loss of feeling in the fingers will not involve the little finger and often will not involve the half of the ring finger nearest the little finger. If you tap with a finger on the front of the wrist, you may get a sudden tingling in the fingers similar to the feeling of hitting your funny bone. Tingling and pain in the carpal tunnel syndrome may be worse at night or when the wrists are bent down.
Exercises to stretch the joint are not very important. The strategy is to rest the joint in the position of best function. Wrist supports are built for this purpose and are available on the Internet at http://TigerPawWristSupport.com.
This company has been manufacturing their supports for 25 years by hand and are the supplier for professional, collegiate and most competitive sports (especially gymnasts) all over the globe.
The Tiger Paw Wrist Support is delivered with a foam pad and two plastic inserts used to customize the strength of the support to the user.
Even the carpal tunnel syndrome is first treated by wrist supports. But since nerve damage could be serious, give your doctor a call if you seem to have the carpal tunnel syndrome.
No prescribed medication should be necessary. Aspirin and similar-strength medications are OK but probably cannot help at all. If you are taking a prescribed anti-inflammatory drug be certain that you are taking it just as directed; sometimes a flare-up is simply due to inadequate medication.
Our best advice? Buy the best quality wrist support you can find and wear it anytine you stress you wrist - or all the time when you have already stressed your wrist to give it time to get better!

Steampunk Wrist Monocular $44.99 The fog is thick today, as we enter New York City's airspace. It's too thick to dock at our scheduled landing platform. The crew thinks fast. Private Gawthrop scrambles to a free window, removes the brass monocular from the leather pouch on his arm, and scans the horizon. He sees it and yells out the course correction. Thanks to his quick thinking and his Steampunk Wrist Monocular, we moor at the 102nd floor of the Empire State Building. We made it. And, ironically, our cargo was a big shipment of the Steampunk Wrist Monocular, which we offer now to you. As soon as you flip the lever and watch the monocular open up like an eye, you'll be in love.
