  • i got this after being preggers

  • your pronunciation of "pollicis" is incorrect

  • I suggest you all to read about Finkelstein's test from wiki and references first.

  • Affect the first dorsal tenon compartment

  • DE QUERVAIN tenosynovitis

  • the pain is caused by inflammation of the tendons of the extensor pollicis brevis and abductor pollicis longus muscles, which pass through a synovial sheath to the thumb, equivalent to carpal tunnel syndrome

  • What if I only feel pain when the fist is pushed up?

  • THX that was useul

  • excellent thanks i read it and i didn't understand a thing
