Hand and Wrist Injuries Questions

Asked for male, 23 years old from Chennai

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

Its better to take an x-ray of wrist inorder to check whether fracture is present or not and apply ice over the sight.

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.
