Your Guide to Understanding De Quervain's Tenosynovitis: Symptoms and Causes
De Quervain's tenosynovitis affects the tendons on the thumb side of the wrist, causing pain and swelling. Our brace aids in reducing discomfort when performing everyday tasks involving wrist and hand movement. Whether caused by chronic overuse, repetitive motions, injuries, or inflammatory arthritis, our solution provides relief and support.
Common De Quervain's Symptoms
Curious if your thumb pain is tenosynovitis? Here are the common signs and symptoms to look out for:
- Pain near the base of your thumb
- Difficulty moving your wrist and thumb
- The sensation of thumb “getting stuck”
- Swelling at the base of the thumb
Early detection of this condition can make for a much faster and less painful recovery. If you’re experiencing one or more of these symptoms, it may be time to seek relief. Reach out to your medical professional to make the right decision for you!
Tenosynovitis vs Tendonitis: What’s The Difference?
Tenosynovitis and tendonitis are both very similar conditions with similar symptoms that affect your tendons, which can make the two easy to confuse with one another. Both issues are caused by inflammation, but the difference between the two is where the inflammation is occurring.
Tenosynovitis is inflammation of the protective membrane that surrounds your tendons. It can be painful and make it hard to move your joints like you usually can. Meanwhile, tendonitis is the swelling and inflammation of the actual tendons themselves. Luckily, this immobilizing splint for the wrist and thumb is a great relief for both tenosynovitis and tendonitis pain.
Taking on De Quervain's Tenosynovitis: Tips and Support
For effective De Quervain's tenosynovitis treatment, follow the RICE protocol: rest, ice, compress, and elevate. Our wrist and thumb brace not only facilitates rest but also aids in compression during the recovery process. The orthopedic forearm splint with thumb abduction stabilizes the MP and CMC joints, offering relief from wrist pain on the thumb side. Adjustable fastener straps ensure targeted compression for both the wrist and thumb areas. For additional compression, consider taping, or using a sleeve, or wrist wrap.
As always, we recommend consulting a medical professional for personalized treatment plans tailored to your needs and injury.
