Wrist rotation refers to the movement of the wrist joint that allows the hand to turn and twist. This motion is essential for various daily activities, such as turning a doorknob or using a screwdriver. The wrist can rotate in two primary directions: pronation, where the palm faces down, and supination, where the palm faces up. The ability to rotate the wrist is facilitated by the radius and ulna, the two bones in the forearm. Muscles and tendons surrounding the wrist also play a crucial role in enabling this movement. Proper wrist rotation is important for maintaining hand function and preventing injuries.
