Yes, particularly if you lifted a heavy grocery bag or the lift was from an awkward position. A pulled ligament is generally referred to as a sprain.
Well you bend your wrist all the time without noticing but if you were to bend it hard and strong enough you could break your wrist or maybe sprain it. Hope it helps (I AM ONLY 13)
As weird as it sounds you can actually sprain your knee!
Hi if u sprain u wrist do u need a sling plz tell me
Sprains are caused by a strain or tear in a muscle or tendon. Usually it is just a stretch that is too far so it caused great pain, but a bad sprain would be a rip or even a complete tear.
Typically doctors will provide an ankle sprain patient with a splint or cohesive wrap, but in some more severe cases a cast could be applied, but not typically.
Inflamation if it is not a sprain.
The average injury is a sprain or fracture.
The R.I.C.E method. No, not rice! Rest, ice, compression, and elevation. Don't use your sprain unless you have to. Put some ice on it, it'll feel better n no time. Compress the sprain by wrapping it in an elastic bandage. This will help support it, so it doesn't move and put more strain on the sprain. Elevate it on a cushion or pillow, as to keep the sprain above the patient's heart if at all possible. And by the way, a torn ligament and a sprain are the same thing! So, hopefully this will help with your torn ligament (sprain). while i agree with most of the above answer, the statement about a sprain and a torn ligament being the same are not. it depends on the severity of the sprain. a grade 1 sprain may have overstretched the ligament where a grade 2 has actually torn the ligament so that part is inaccurate. just thought i would add that extra information since i recently suffered a grade 3 strain (torn ligament) that required surgery!
If you have torn the ligament it will swell, bruise, and possibly bunch up depending on the severity of the tear. You will also likely not be able to move your wrist. If it is just a bruise it will swell and turn colors but you should still have at least some movement in and there is no detachment involved.
If you want to sprain your wrist take it from someone who has sprained their wrist like me. Get someone who can throw a softball REALLY hard and stand kind of close to them. Catch the ball and because of the force your wrist will bend back and it will cause a sprain. But my wrist really hurt when I sprained it so my advice is not to try to sprain your wrist on purpose.
Not possible, and we do not provide instructions for self destructive behavior.
This is commonly known as a wrist sprain, where the ligaments connecting the carpal bones are stretched or torn due to sudden impact or force. It can cause pain, swelling, and limited range of motion in the wrist. Rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) is typically recommended for initial treatment of a wrist sprain.
