Pitching, catching, and base-running may predispose professional baseball players to injury—particularly in the hand and wrist. In this study, we outline the diagnosis, management, and rehabilitation of commonly encountered injuries among these high-level athletes. Wrist injuries discussed include hook of hamate fractures, extensor carpi ulnaris tendon disorders, scapholunate instability, and triangular fibrocartilage complex tears. Hand injuries discussed include thumb ulnar collateral ligament injury, flexor tendon pulley rupture, hypothenar hammer syndrome, and blisters. |
