The Hand is Made Up of Several Different Bones that are Fragile. In Case of an Injury, It is Important to Get the Proper Medical Care to Make Sure Your Hand Heals Correctly.
Through instinct, we use our hands to brace the impact during a heavy impact or fall, such as from a motor vehicle accident.
For instance, imagine a bicyclist is hit when an SUV makes too wide of a turn and swerves into the bike lane. The biker is thrown off the bike and as a natural reaction, uses his hands to protect his head from hitting the concrete. The bones of his hand and wrist may be broken, causing extreme pain, deformity, and immobility.
The hand and wrist are made up of several bones, 27 altogether, making it especially susceptible to sprains, fractures, and strains. An injury to the underlying structure of the hand or wrist has the potential to lead to permanent consequences. Even the slightest injury requires medical attention in order to ensure proper treatment during the healing process.
