Wrist

The typical Carpal tunnel syndrome sufferer is a woman between 40 and 60 years old.It is caused by compression of the median nerve as it passes through the carpal canal at the wrist. This entrapment neuropathy manifests as pain, numbness, paresthesias, and associated weakness in the hand and wrist; these symptoms radiate to the thumb, index, middle, and radial half of the ring fingers. Untreated, progressive motor deficit and, ultimately, flexion contracture of the affected fingers can result

de Quervain's Tenosynovitis

de Quervain's tenosynovitis is most common in women 30 to 50 years of age. Patients typically report several weeks of pain, often severe, on the radial aspect of the wrist at about the level of the radial styloid. Wrist pain and grip weakness are the hallmarks of de Quervain's tenosynovitis. Pinch grip, thumb extension or abduction, and wrist motion exacerbate and reproduce the pain.
