Recommend Treatment For Wrist Pain
My right wrist has been extremely painful for over a month. My symptoms seem to be a match for deQuervain s (Painful thumb, wrist, about 2 inches above my wrist, and occasionally extending to my elbow). I have a brace that provides some relief, but returns with a vengeance if I remove the brace. I m newly retired, and on Medicare. I don t yet fully understand Medicare A/B, but I don t find any reference to my concern on the government website. What should I do?

Hello
I have read your query.
I will advise you physiotherapy like ten and matrix therapy may help you.
If not relieved then you may need local injection shot.
Keep using splint.
MRI will help you to confirm diagnosis.
