Patient's question:
Doctor, I have wrist tendinitis. My wrist has been quite stiff, and it often hurts. But my job involves manual labor, which makes me very troubled.Hello Doctor, how can I treat wrist tendinitis? Is there any way to completely restore my hand to normal condition?
Doctor's answer:
You are mainly likely to have injured the periosteum in your wrist due to frequent manual work, which has led to multiple occurrences of periosteitis. This can cause repeated swelling and pain in the affected area, and in severe cases, it may even affect wrist movement. You can take some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for relief, and acupuncture therapy can also be considered for treatment. Additionally, you can use a wrist brace to immobilize the joint. It's also important to pay attention to preventing cold exposure to your wrist in daily life.
