Padel wrist injury
What is a padel wrist injury?
A wrist injury in padel is often the result of overuse, improper technique, or a sudden, incorrect movement. This can lead to pain, inflammation, and reduced mobility in the wrist. Common wrist injuries in padel include tendinitis, sprains, and carpal tunnel syndrome. These injuries can significantly hinder your game and cause long-term problems if not properly treated.

- Overuse: Repeated movements and intensive training can overload the wrist, leading to inflammation and pain.
