Wrist hurts when playing tennis??

Question

After I would say about 15 minutes of play my right wrist begans to hurt when using forehand causing me not to swing fast and failing to get ball across. I used an wrist band that I got from nike and that seems not to work at all. So now I'm wondering should I worry about my wrist and buy something to wrap it with when playing or should I go see an doctor

Answer 1

I'd see a doctor if it starts to swell, or gets very uncomfortable.

Usually with tennis players at my school, we do a basic/advanced wrist taping procedure and they're good to play.

But definitely get it checked out if it hurts too much!

Answer 2

You most likely have tendonitis. Tendonitis is the inflammation of a tendon and it can cause some pain. It's not very serious but I'd go to a doctor just tp make sure =]
