Wrist Mobility - The Carpal Boss
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 10. 2014
- The Carpal Boss is a small restriction in the back of the wrist. It is between the carpals and metacarpals of the hand commonly known as the carpometacarpal joint. It is something that is quite common in CrossFit athletes due to the large amount wrist mobility needed for some of the movements performed.
This short with show you some of the exercises you can perform to improve your wrist mobility.

Really needed this thanks alot ....had noticed the carpool boss on my dorminant right hand and also my elbow joint hurts with in that very point you have illustrated ....always had this tight feeling of wanting to shake out my right elbow joint ....will definitely try this out
Did you and did it work?
You're welcome
thanks it worked. Released tension and tenderness from my wrist
I got my carpal boss after I had a motorbike accident and it’s been a month now my hand got minor fracture and initially carpal boss was painful but now swelling and pain are subsiding slowly so what should I do sir?
How often should I be doing these? Great video ❤️🔥
I have Carpal Bosse from overuse of grass shears, i use these to cut my entire small lawn, also crocheting
Did it improve? What happened?
This sounds like a repetitive motion which can be aggravating. Suggestion would be to try managing the amount of time you spend doing the repetitive activity and take regular breaks (before it becomes painful)
Thanks.. crossfit athlete with terrible wrist mobility and a carpal boss on right hand.. its stopping my training lately.
my carpal boss is a little one untill i use my hand to badminton which is racket sport a lot. now it's getting bigger.
That makes sense, does it also cause any pain? Its important to identify which muscles in your arm could get stronger to support your wrist.
I have small bump on my wrist but its located on the lower part of my palm, connected where my thumb is. Its hard and i know its not Ganglion cyst. Is it carpal boss?
Typically a carpal boss is not where you are describing. If unsure and it's problematic, speak to your trusted health professional or reach out to DrNick nick@balancehp.com.au
my carpal boss came from bending my wrist from pushups / bench press in the gym when i was 21. so i stopped bending my wrist and ever since then it doesnt cause problems. whats left is the small bump on my left hand and some weird bone moving feeling in the elbow area, cant figure out what do to about , it doesnt hurt but it its weird and a makes me worry
Thanks for your comment. If it doesn't cause you any problems, it's generally nothing to worry about. If the bump is getting worse and your concerns continue, seek individual advice from your trusted health provider
@@balancehp i had done an xray 6 years ago - they said carpal bossing, had a phase of it hurting about 1-2 years ago, did a ct scan, they think it is water inside bones caused by a trauma, an injury in the past, the orthopedist didnt know carpal bossing, used wikipedia, i am sceptical of these different results, not sure what to do, so i do nothing since it doesnt hurt since that last time, thx for your answer
@@Eternity__- ok. Yes when there is no pain or discomfort, there may be no need to worry. If there's anything we can help with feel free to reach out.
Mine is on the back of my wrist joint from using my laptop in an awkward position.
I have this. It is excruciating when I play golf. Have had cortisone shots but they no longer work. I doubt this exercise will help with golf.
Surgery bro
It's worth a try.. but if it hurts with gold then more specific advice might be warranted. Feel free to reach out to DrNick nick@balancehp.com.au
I’ve had this for years and lately I’ve been working out a whole lot and now whenever I do pushups they hurt a lot.
Use wrist bands
just dont do pushups or dont bend your wrist
Use a bar or elevated surface, that's the trick. My right hand cannot go flat due to this but with a bar solved.
@@thebirdhasbeencharged Correct but still it's not comfortable. Hand Specialists can remove this
I do them on my fists or with push uo bars
Can the lump be located in a different place in the wrist, like maybe a little bit lower or higher ?
Mine is higher
@@juliuscaesar5001 me too
@@_trust9994 do you still have it , I am doing some easy mobility exercises every day, the lump is not bothering me much
yes
@@juliuscaesar5001 can you do pushups though?
If I get this removed, will I be ever able to do tumbling, and gymnastics again.
yes , it is not a big issue. i is healed wit time too.
Im afraid of surgery couse im manual terapist, and I need that hand to work with patients. Mine carpal bossing is a lot bigger. How long you needed to full recovery after surgery?
@@polabora 2 weeks, 4 weeks without heavy lifting. IM having this sucker removed from my wrist.
@@_trust9994 I had surgery in 2019. It take about 3 months to full recovery. Minor side issues with scar and tendons mobility- I deal with. Now its grate, inflamations didnt appear this two years. I recommend surgery especialy for those who work with hands.
yeah, if the surgery is succesful then yes (in most cases it is so don't worry too much), you'll just need some time to recover
Pleas tell me that only surgery is the only treatment of this..I am about to cry 😭
It can be if it's bad enough. In milder cases you can manage it with strategies as shown in the video
I wish I knew if he was talking about tennis elbow in the second half. I've been diagnosed with that.
Lol
Thank you for your comment. I hope you're tennis elbow has settled down by now. Feel free to reach out to DrNick if it hasn't nick@balancehp.com.au
Did any one try this? My hand is so painfull because of the carpal boss
This guy doesnt even know what a carpal boss is. These exercises will do nothing.
There are never absolutes.. just management strategies. This is how I helped mine, and how I helped others. The alternatives are to stop the aggravating activities and if it's bad enough to consult a specialist.
How long has the lump been on your hand? is the lump hard like bone
Please help me out , is there any way to get rid of carpal boss, mine one doesn't pains but I have a defence interview and the having Carpal boss' will be my negative point 😭😭🙏
I am a bit late to your comment, but as a person who has a carpal boss too, i can give you some advice. Talk to your doctor about it and talk about the treatments. Carpal boss can usually be surgically removed, but in some situations it may return after surgery (however the risk of that happening is pretty low). You can also use a brace to stabilize the wrist or just wear it during sports activites. Taping works too. But there's some more advice coming from my doctor is, that if its not painful, or causing any trouble, it may be the best to just leave it alone. I wish you the best of luck with your carpal boss.
@@nejastricelj5100 thanks ma'am for replying , I will surely do whatever I can 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@livenews5582 in fact it's ma'am in my case, but of course no worries hahahah. I really wish you the best of luck!
@@nejastricelj5100 How long have you had carpal boss?
@@theop2200 Since april 14th 2021. Why?
Now this bone is very visible. What should I do? Can I just leave it alone?
same problem bro
if it doesn't cause you any trouble or pain it may be the best to just leave it alone. If not, talk to your doctor about it and what treatments you could get.
@@tiktokworld3413 if it doesn't cause you any trouble or pain it may be the best to just leave it alone. If not, talk to your doctor about it and what treatments you could get.
If you're concerned or its getting bigger, then speak to your trusted health advisor. If it's not getting bigger or painful its nothing to worry about
it is possible to have normal life with this fucking boss? It is possible to continue gym?
Yes it is possible. Just manage it when it gets painful by avoiding aggravating activities, try these exercises and consult your doctor if need be. But once it settles you can reintroduce exercises.
A carpal boss is an extra bone, an accessory bone. It's a genetic abnormality so the majority of people don't have one.
how does it develop? bevause i never had this lump before, but i believe it is Ganglion or this Carpal Bone... i have tried to press it or whatever, but it is weird to do....i get freaked out..... it is sore if i press it, but i dont know how else or whatever i can itry to figure out what it is.... so as i was sayng, i believe i got this lump because of strain, i was pumping water from a wel which i have never done i my life...and i was doing proper movements like bending legs and of course my biceps triceps and hand and wrists are moving too...and its a very intense workout say 15 miutes to 20 minutes to fill a barrel with water. forgive my spelling errors, thanks
@@CollosalTrollge I was born with several extra bones in my hands and feet. I didn't know this until I got some X-rays in my late 20s. If it hadn't caused irritation to a tendon after a few years of computer work, I might never have known that that pyramid shaped bone was there.
I think if you want the definitive answer, you should try to get it seen by a doctor.
@@s13rr4buf3 ortho probably is the best one right ?
@@CollosalTrollge Sorry!! I honestly have no idea. Somebody with an x-ray machine and a knowledge of hand bones.
@@s13rr4buf3 yah
Bruh thats not a carpal boss
it is a carpal boss, they're not always the same size, that's why his may not be so visible
It is a carpal boss
Mommy don't know I am getting hot, at the doctor's shop, doing something unholy 🫢
