Sit at a table with the injured arm hanging over the edge with the palm facing downwards. Use the other arm to apply pressure on the back of the injured hand so that the injured lower arm becomes increasingly stretched on the upper side. Repeat the exercise where the injured hand is alternately pressed from side to side. The injured arm should finally be turned over and the exercise repeated by pressing the underside of the hand so that the injured lower arm becomes increasingly stretched on the under side. The stretching positions should be held for 20 seconds followed by 20 seconds of rest before repeating.
Bend your wrist up as far as possible and press with the opposite hand. Hold the position for 20 seconds. Repeat the exercise pressing the wrist downwards. Hold the position for 20 seconds.
Press your hands together and lift your elbows while holding your arms in front of your chest. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating.
Sit on a table holding your arms in to your body. Turn your hands so that the fingers face backwards and thumbs to the side. Your arms should be outstretched.
