Dorsal Wrist Impingement

Postby yojimbo » Sat Feb 09, 2013 1:31 pm

Suffering from what I believe is called dorsal wrist impingement. I think it is due to pulling on the bar while kitesurfing. I think that I may have made it worse by doing handstands and push ups during my yoga and pilates practice.

Apparently gymnasts also suffer from this as they hang/pull from bars and do handstands etc.

I found this video on how to treat this ailment:

A man goes to the doctor and says "my wrists hurt when I kiteboard".
The doctor says "stop kiteboarding".

Yoga may look sweet and innocent but don't let the lululemon fool you
