Love all your videos. I have inflammed elbows. Can you gives us videos targetting the elbows, tennis/golfer elbow. Merci

[@garypritchard9787]

After ct surgery on my left wrist 7/23, you were my therapist while going 2x/ week, I still do the exercises you suggest to keep my hands limber and right wrist symptom free.

[@Painfreewithjordan]

Thank you so much for this. These are all common stretches and exercises. What’s the difference between nerve floss and nerve glide ?

[@VirtualHandCare]

To my knowledge there is not difference. They are used interchangeably.

[@SundaramSportsBhiwandi]

Hello Ma'am I have Burning Pain in my left hand and Arm Please what can I do for this 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@lifeisgarden]

Is there exercise for mallet finger deformity

[@peggytraeg]

Great explanation of carpal tunnel syndrome. I was wondering, though, if pain can radiate at the back of the hand beween the web of the thumb and two finger (pointer finger)? Thanks for a great video.

[@VirtualHandCare]

No carpal tunnel doesn't not radiate or innervate on the back of the hand. That could the radial nerve or the dorsal sensory branch of the radial nerve.

[@peggytraeg]

@@VirtualHandCare Thank you for your reply. I really enjoy your the information you share with us.

[@isaacr9893]

This couldn’t have come out at a better time

[@VirtualHandCare]

Glad to hear that!

[@LDFine]

Since I broke my wrist about 10 weeks ago, I've been doing great in getting movement back, but my PT has been encouraging those wrist flexion and extension exercises to help my wrist have a larger degree of movement which is about 50% right now, but since about 5 weeks ago when I could write and craft again, I began having carpal tunnel syndrome, but she said to keep up with the exercises and activities, but it does seem to make it worse, sooooo how am I supposed to get my wrist to move around normally again if I'm supposed to avoid those stretches? 🤦🏻‍♀️ Thank you so much for this video. 💗

[@VirtualHandCare]

You can try the myofascial stretch ligament stretch on the wall as a way to stretch in wrist extension. Ask your PT to show you ways to modify or at least reduce the strain to the nerve when stretching. Getting motion back is important but the last thing you want is creating a nerve issue that gets too bad.
