Wrist problem

**bedon97** · 07-19-2011, 08:41 AM

Ive been playing badminton for a few months now. But I started having wrist problems when smashing and backhand clears. The pain goes away when im not playing, but it starts to hurt when i massaged it or when im playing. Can anyone tell me what is the reason for my injury and what can I do to heal it?

too much usage of wrist work? Try less wrist work and more on the arms. Did you try putting on a firm wrist band? See a doctor is always recommended.

Swim to relax the muscles.

There's a dreamland in australia mate. u went there yet? lol.

Just rest the wrist and use more arm swinging when you play. It should help to put less pressure on the wrist.

I have not tried TCM tho.

What I meant was western physio.

Pain is a gift. lmao.

swimming is good for all kinds of injury actually. No impact whatsoever. That's what I did during those hey days. I have problems with knees, ankle, shoulder, neck, elbow and wrist. Now slowing down.

Enjoy your swim. Don't knock on the wall during tumble turn ya. Need a coach to help you turn? lol
