Physio Tips - DE QUERVAIN¡¦S SYNDROME
Common symptoms are:
- Pain at the wrist on using the thumb
- Swelling of the extensor tendon of the thumb
- Tenderness on palpation of the tendon where it passes over the wrist
- Pain on flexion and extension of the wrist joint
- Pain on thumb extension against resistance
|
|
 |
- Creaking of the tendon may be felt when the thumb is moved
|
Treatment:
- Rest in thumb splint which immobilize all the joints of the thumb, except the DIP (finger-tip) joint during acute inflammation
- Gentle active and passive thumb and wrist motion encouraged every hour to prevent joint stiffness and tendon adhesions
- Ice massage
- Modalities such as ultrasound, laser, and interferential therapy, to reduce pain and inflammation
|
|
 |
- Gentle stretching of thumb extensors and radial nerve once symptoms have subsided
- Hydrocortisone injection if symptoms persist
|
Please feel free to contact our physiotherapist, Ms. Aggie Siu at aggie_siu@yahoo.com.hk if you have any query about your wrist problems.
