Been taping manually for a few weeks now to good supportive effect but just wondering if there was a recommendation for a ready made that actually works. Thanks

I use a Neo G wrist support when punching things and it works well for anything but uppercuts (it's possible my uppercuts suck)

That'd be no use on a bike as it sits in your palm. A quick Google shows they also do a wrist band which might suit.

Decathlon do a couple of good ones. The Soft 300 works well for me. https://www.decathlon.co.uk/C-932927-wrist-supports

Used the £12.99 strong wrist support from decathlon whilst recovering from a broken radius last year. It has a hard plastic splint which sits in the palm of your hand but can be removed, which made it ideal for riding, and was by far the best support I found in the price range

Thanks folks, think I’ll buy a few of your recommendations and see which suits best

Of all the ones I've tried, I liked [url= https://www.pullum-sports.co.uk/eleiko-blue-wrist-wraps.html ]these[/url] the best. My wrists have now strengthened so I don't need straps anymore, but my wife now borrows them for Crossfit as some of the moves are too much for her wrists unsupported.

Tried loads for rugby after a failed hand off. This was the best and still comes with me for biking weekends as it can play up a bit after a long day riding.

Thanks again, seems the wrist band type are popular and probably most relevant for me. Definitely going to try a few as I need it for work and play.

Have you tried a stretching / strengthening routine e.g.

Nope, I’ll have a look thanks. No idea what I did, felt like I’d broken it for a few days but no swelling so I never troubled the doctor. But I’ve had no strength in it for a couple of months, and now it hurts like buggery if I swing a hammer or mallet and aches after every ride. Ho hum, stretches is worth a try.

I'd see a physio / sports therapist, they will be able to give you a more specific set of rehab / strengthening exercises.....
