The main muscle responsible for flexing the wrist is the flexor carpi radialis. This muscle originates from the medial epicondyle of the humerus and inserts into the base of the second and third metacarpals. It plays a crucial role in wrist movements, allowing for flexion and slight abduction of the hand. Other muscles, like the flexor carpi ulnaris, also assist in wrist flexion but the flexor carpi radialis is the primary mover.
