Ligament problem thumb
There's some problem on my right elbow when i move my hand extremely, also i on my thumb there's some pain when i twist it, it has healed with time but i still can put as much power as i was able to before using my thumb because of that thumb sprain. Please suggest what should i do?
Based on the details given, it is likely to be tennis elbow and de Quervains tenosynovitis at the thumb. Consult a physiotherapist in your locality for the best conservative management of these conditions. Home Care includes icing for 10-15 minutes and overnight dressing with well stirred glycerine magnesium sulphate paste. Use of wrist splint with thumb spica during strenuous activities is helpful for both the conditions.
