The wife of Republican presidential candidate John McCain was treated for a minor wrist sprain after an enthusiastic supporter gave her a firm handshake at a campaign event in Michigan on Wednesday.

The encounter aggravated a pre-existing carpal tunnel condition, a rep for the McCains explains.

Cindy McCain was photographed wearing a soft cast on her right arm wrapped in a fashionable black sling after the fan encounter in Birmingham.
