  • at golf, being done practicing chipping I start knocking my practice balls back to my bag, and after one ball i knocked back, I had my wedge in my left hand and when my wrist hinged froward the weight of the golf club made what I felt a pulling sensation and that was 1 to 2 weeks ago, the pain started tuesday, its gotten better but when I hinge my wrist or turn my wrist sideways, it hurts. Dr. Berger, what have I done, and the source of the pain comes from the fovea on both sides

  • I hope my orthopedic surgeon listens to me when I explain to him in a few days that I reasearched this and think this is the cause of my wrist pain.

  • Dr Berger thank you for making this video available. I have been suffering with this for 2 months now I have tried conservative management which was beneficial initially as I had referral pain to my elbow. Now however I am very guarded with my hand and can now proudly say that I am ambidextrous only to protect any further damage to my ? ulna forea sign. I will certainly be taking some of your documentation to my doctor this week

  • What a great guy! Who knows when this would have been discovered if Berger hadn't figured it out. It's the reason I watched Jayson Werth play the SF Giants in Fall 2010!

  • THANK GOD for you DR. BERGER!!!
