Right ulnar wrist/hypothenar muscle pain

2017-12-29 19:22:31
I have been experiencing right ulnar side wrist pain that is occurring mostly in my hypothenar muscle region. I am an OT and had another therapist look at it and she mentioned a possible subluxation of the pisiform. What can I do for the pain and how can I determine what it is? Symptoms include; pain with movt., decreased grip strength on occassion. No recent falls or traumas.
