Wrist drop is a clinical sign of radial nerve palsy, typically resulting from nerve compression or trauma. It presents as an inability to actively extend the wrist and fingers, leading to a characteristic “dropped” hand posture. Common causes include prolonged pressure on the upper arm, humeral fractures, or surgical complications. Early diagnosis and targeted therapy are key to recovery. | PhysioFixers
