Wrist fractures are common, especially from falls on an outstretched hand. They can occur during sports, accidents, or even simple slips on wet surfaces. One of the most frequent types is the Colles fracture, where the broken bone near the wrist joint shifts upward.

Every step you take puts weight and pressure on your feet. Over time, unsupportive shoes can lead to strain on the muscles, ligaments, and joints of the foot and ankle. Wearing the right footwear isn’t just about comfort, it plays an important role in maintaining proper alignment and preventing common orthopaedic conditions such as plantar fasciitis, bunions, flat feet, and ankle instability.

Modern life keeps our hands busy, from tapping on screens to carrying groceries. But all that constant motion can take a toll. Many people start noticing dull aches, stiffness, or swelling in their hands and wrists, especially after long hours of computer work or repetitive lifting.

Your shoulder aches just as you lift your laptop tray to work, and the twinge sends you wincing back in your seat. It’s not just a “stiff shoulder” from last week’s badminton game; this persistent nag is affecting your sleep, your commute and your weekend plans.
