title: Rehabilitation techniques for ligament injuries of the wrist.
abstract: The goal of treatment after any wrist injury is a pain-free, stable joint with sufficient strength and mobility to carry out the daily recreational, and occupational tasks required by the individual. Treatment varies considerably depending on the age of the patient, the severity of the initial injury, the operative procedure performed, and the specific guidelines requested by the referring physician.
