The Climbing Injury Podcast

In today's episode, we're discussing wrist injuries and wrist related pain due to climbing.
We often meet patients worried that they've injured their TFCC (more on this in the episode), which can be a serious injury. But this is quite rare, and there are other more common causes and sources to a climber's wrist pain than just the TFCC. This is also highlighted in a recent paper by Schöffl and colleagues (article here: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37800447/). 

We discuss different injury mechanisms, such as slopers and underclings, and how to both manage and hopefully prevent wrist pain and wrist injuries.
