Doing push-ups hand joint pain may be due to muscle strain, joint cartilage damage, joint degeneration and other factors.
1. Muscle strain: If you do push-ups for too long and too many times, it may lead to excessive strain on the soft tissues around the joints, causing joint pain; in addition, if you do push-ups with the wrong force, relying on the wrist joints for all the force, you may also experience symptoms of joint pain. It is recommended to pay attention to rest and reduce wrist activities.
2. Articular cartilage injury: When doing push-ups, the pressure on the wrist joint is relatively high, and there will be impact or friction between the joint surfaces, which may lead to cartilage damage in the wrist joint and cause joint pain. It is recommended to apply ice immediately after the injury or apply blood-activating and pain-relieving Chinese medicine, and if necessary, surgery may be needed to repair the joint cartilage.
3. Degeneration of joints: Degenerative lesions may occur in the wrist joint due to ageing and repeated strain. Degenerative lesions may lead to pathological changes such as the formation of bony encumbrances in the wrist joints, reduction of joint fluid and narrowing of the joint space, and the symptoms of joint pain when doing push-ups may also occur. It is recommended to reduce joint activities, or with drugs such as glucosamine sulfate to slow down joint degeneration.
If the pain in the joints of the hands continues to be unrelieved, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time, improve the examination to clarify the cause of the disease, and then give targeted treatment or therapy under the guidance of the doctor. The above medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor.
