Is There Better Treatment For De Quervain's Tenosynovitis In Ayurveda Instead Of Surgery?
further necessary information
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for contacting the Ayurveda section and after reviewing your case history and answer by another eminent Physician along with the attached reports, I'm of the following opinion:
1. de quervian disease/syndrome/tenosynovitis is sometimes also associated with other diseased/pathological conditions like diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and hypothyroidism [so please check with necessary Examination and Investigations to rule out the same], till then certain lifestyle changes which one can incorporate in ADL [activities of daily living] are:
. Avoid repetitive motions: constant gripping, forceful bending of the wrist, engaging in lifting or pinching activities without sufficient rest periods or stretches.
. Avoid or limit the activity that aggravates the pain. [ place the affected wrist in a removable splint to immobilize the thumb and prevent further irritation and inflammation.]
. Applying ice to the styloid process may decrease inflammation and symptoms.
. when symptoms start to improve, add gentle stretching exercises (Myofascial release techniques) to prevent recurrent inflammation.
. If you are opting for Ayurveda treatment [pathology is because of vitiated Vata dosha], YES I do have result oriented [self-made] herbal preparation which relieves pain and relaxes swollen joints/tendons to promote smoother functions/movement along with certain Yoga postures/Mudra
Please revert back with your concerns
