Hand and Wrist Injuries Health Feed

Asked for male, 23 years old from Chennai

Report

I am a 23 years male and I go to gym regularly. Around 2 weeks back my right wrist started hurting and now if I close my wrist some tendons are moving near carpel bone and causing pain. Sometimes I can not even close my hand. Previously doctor gave pain killer and some vitamins but it didn't work. I got and xray, mri and ultrasound and bellow are the reports. there is abnormal synovial thickening with edema and inflammatory changes seen in the proximal palmar aspect of hand at the level of metacarpal bone deep to flexor digitorum superficialis tendon of middle finger. The synovial thickening is mobile and extends proximally up to the wrist joint at the level of flexor retinaculum. (dynamic ultrasound of the hand was performed: during flexion of hand the abnormal synovial thickening extends proximally into the wrist joint in the subcutaneous plane). There is mild to moderate edema seen in the adjacent soft tissue plane. Is there any serious issue, what are all the available treatments. Thanks in advance.

Synovial thickening is our body's response to friction caused due to inability to cope up ...more

Trigger finger is a condition that affects one or more of the hand's tendons, making it difficult to bend the affected finger or thumb. If the tendon becomes swollen and inflamed it can "catch" in the tunnel it runs through. It usually affects the thumb, ring finger or little finger. But we have to look into the details of the problem.
Let's have a detailed discussion to Ensure proper treatment.

The medical term used to describe a broken wrist is wrist fracture. The fracture might be in the 10 bones, which make up the wrist or in the radius.

Open fracture is when the bone breaks and it breaks through the skin. This might cause an infection to the wounded area.
