What is "wrist"?
The wrist is a complex joint located between the hand and the forearm, allowing for movement and flexibility. It consists of multiple small bones called carpal bones, along with ligaments, tendons, and nerves. The wrist enables various motions such as flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction, facilitating activities like grasping, gripping, and manipulating objects. It plays a crucial role in fine motor skills and is essential for many daily tasks. Understanding the anatomy and function of the wrist is important for maintaining its stability, preventing injuries, and ensuring optimal hand and arm functionality.
