This may be very strange to all of you but when I ride now it kills my left wrist..... I am new to the sport but am now being able to idol and scrap and whatnot, but when I am in a wheelie I seem to be pulling on the the bars a little bit, I am wondering if this is what the problem is? Do i need to keep my arm straight out and relaxed/not pulling on the bars? It doesnt hurt as bad when all my fingers are on the bar but like when i slip the clutch i use my pointer finger and leave my finger on the clutch usually durring the wheelie that is when it hurts the most. Say i pull up a wheelie to idol and am pulling on the bars a litle bit, the second i stop pulling on my wrist and put pressure back on it is when it kills, Any help or pointers would be great on this. Thanks.

 

do you have a dirt bar set up? some db's sweep to far back, and put more pressure on your wrist.

 

i dont know...my right wrist hurts all the time when i ride normal on the streets even. have you ever broke your wrist or anything? im pretty sure thats why my right one hurts when i ride. just take some pain killers...youll be good

edit-----pain killers that DONT make you drowsy

 

i had the problem for a wile it was from when i set the my whoolies down hard.. its kinda like a jamed finger.. but with your wrists.. mine get soar when i ride a lot.. i think its normal lol

 

Yea i have the scary gary DB bars form HAI

 

Its called repetative strain injury. Like tennis elbow. It will be worse when you get to age 37 like me. try to relax when you stunt the more you **** yourself when the wheels in the air the more your wrist will hurt.

 

Buy an ez pull clutch lever and stop spelling idle like a Ryan Seacrest squid.

 

your killing me!!!!

 

My right hand wrist is also fucked and constantly giving me pain, I over extended my wrist backwards a few times...And it feels like it was broken but nothing showed up on the Xrays, a joint specialist told me its my tenions and ligaments that hurt because they have been streached...Only time can heal this kind of injury....

After every winter I get it back to %100 because Im not aggrevating them, but as soon as I fall and use that hand to protect myself I re injure it...

Funny thing is it hurts when I first start riding, but once I get into the groove it feels better...

 

NO pain killers!!!
go to your doctor and get celebrex!
that shyt is a god send!
and you will not be high when you ride!
(riding high on pain killers is badd umkay!)

 

Or you can just take a couple of bong rips.

 

+1 I personally do not like taking any kind of meds, but some good Kush or Durban does the trick for me....

 

same thing with me, my wrist kills me almost 24/7 , except when Im riding. Mines fucked cause I broke it, but couldnt get surgery on it till almost 2 months after.

 

get used to it man it only gets worst from here lol, seriously. my left wrist is all fucked up, i get steroid injections in it about once a year.

 

yep, my injuries 2 1/2 years old, and it keeps hurting worse and worse

steroid injections in your wrist? does that help?

 

pulling the clutch in a lot can strain your wrist really badly. Sometimes you could wheelie all day and be fine, but then a week later you try to go out and ride and BAM, it hurts like an SOB!

 

YES!!!!!!!
DOUBLE YES:YEAH :YEAH :YEAH
I get steroid injections in my back twice a year

 

it does for me. cuz i have soft tissue damage theyre not too sure exactly whats damaged cuz i havent gotten an mri done on it, just xrays and they cant find any bone injuries. so the easy thing to do is cram a needle in my wrist with some steroids and it brings the inflamation down and makes the pain go away till i irritate it again lol

 

good ole' cordizone

 

Try getting a wrist wrap to keep presure on it. about ten bucks , might help, just make sure you don't cut off circulation to hand. if it's not permanant .it can go away on its own if you take care of it and let it heal.. that means no jamming it doing stunts...
