What Cause The Wrist Pain While Bending Backward?

I ve had wrist pain on and off for years now. It hurts the most when I bend it backwards - I have a limited range of motion because of this. There doesn t seem to be a trigger for the pain either. I work at a computer all day and it never hurts when I type, only when it s bent backwards or if there s any pressure on it. I m wondering if it could either be tendonitus or maybe early onset arthritus? I m only 24 and it s been on and off since I was about 17.

Hi,

This treatment is being suggested on bases of the information provided. However, I would like to examine & investigate the patient in detail. Control hypertension, diabetes or any other metabolic disorder, if there is any.

Any way it may be tried:
- Dolokind Plus (Mankind) [Aceclofenac + Paracetamol] 1 tablet OD & SOS for 5 days.
- Caldikind plus (Mankind) 1 tablet OD for 10 days. (You may need help of your local doctor to get these medicines.)
- Fomentation with warm water. Let the part not be exposed to cold air.
- Sleep on a hard bed with soft bedding.
- Use no pillow under the head.
- Avoid painful acts & activities.
- Do mild exercises for neck and shoulders and hips and knees and ankles. (Take help of a physiotherapist.)
- Do not ignore, let it not become beginning of a major problem.
- Do ask for a detailed treatment plan.
- Make sure, there is no allergy to any of these medicines.
- For emergency treatment visit nearest hospital.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nirmal Chander Gupta,
Orthopaedic Surgeon
