What Causes Extreme Pain In The Hand While Rotating The Wrist Post Trauma?

I have discussed this with both my Surgeon and my PT. The answer has been lots of damage and inflamed tendons. Still, wondering......
Tendon inflammation only.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Reconstruction of the radial head is an extensive surgery and involves a lot of tissue damage and tendon stretching. This all has happened just 6 weeks back. The healing will take some time and it may involve an inflammation of the tendons at the elbow. Pain only on a specific movement suggests a particular tendon inflammation. No nerve compression as strength is alright. No need to worry. The ROM will also improve with regular physiotherapy.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
