A wrist sprain is a condition which requires early physiotherapy exercises to prevent wrist joint stiffness and long term weakness developing. Key to a good outcome is grading the exercises properly pushing in to mild stiffness and discomfort. Perform stretches/ mobility exercises for 5×30 seconds and practice balance exercises for 5 minutes twice daily. Perform strength exercises with 3-4 sets x15 repetitions twice daily. Gradually increase the exercise difficulty as pain and swelling allow.
