Strengthening plays a significant role in joint stability and overall function. A sprain affecting the elbow, wrist, or hand can impair function and lead to looseness in the joints. Joint instability can also occur from an injury to the ligaments helping to hold the joint together. Physical therapy can help with this instability. A physical therapist can ensure your functioning through an appropriate program, even after an injury to the ligaments. If an injury is not adequately rehabilitated, you may not fully recover your elbow, wrist, or hand's strength, stability, and overall functioning. Seeing a physical therapist after a sports injury, fall, or another type of injury is essential to your joints' long-term health and functioning.
