Question

What's a wrist exercise that might help if you have carpal tunnel syndrome?

Answer 1

• Hold your arm straight out in front of you, wrist and hand straight, palm of your hand facing down.
• Bend your wrist down so your fingers point toward the floor.
• Use your other hand to increase the stretch, gently pulling the fingers toward your body.
• Hold for 15-30 seconds.
• Return to a straight, neutral wrist with palm facing down.
• Bend your wrist up so your fingertips point toward the ceiling.
• Use your other hand to gently pull your fingers back toward you.
• Repeat 10 times.
• Do this up to three times a day.
