The steps I took to cure my wrist pain
Wrist tendonitis is characterized by inflammation of the tendons that bend your fingers and thumb, which are located on the back of your wrist. Symptoms include pain, tenderness, stiffness, and swelling around the back of your wrist. If left untreated, it can lead to conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome.
Bilateral fractures of the distal radius and scaphoid are extremely rare injuries. In fact, we have found only one case reported in the English language medical literature; the patient had been treated using plaster immobilization [].In this paper, we report the case of a young man who sustained high-energy, unstable, displaced distal radius fractures along with displaced scaphoid fractures.

What causes wrist tendinitis? Wrist tendinitis (tendonitis) is typically the result of repetitive stress on the tendons in your wrist. A layer of lubricated tissue, called a tendon sheath, surrounds your tendons. Overuse can irritate the sheath, leading to inflammation and enlargement.
Synovitis is a common condition meaning inflammation of the synovial lining of a joint or tendon sheath (the tunnel the tendon runs through). Tendon sheath synovitis is referred to as tenosynovitis. It is a generalised response of that particular tissue (the synovial lining) to a local problem e.g. injury or infection.
The cause of tendonitis and tenosynovitis is often not known. They may be caused by strain, overuse, injury, or too much exercise. Tendonitis may also be related to a disease such as diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, or infection.
In general, when a physician, particularly an Orthopedic Surgeon, speaks of "Tendinitis of the Shoulder," he/she is usually meaning "Rotator Cuff Tendinitis," which does not even have a specific code in ICD-10. In general, ICD-10 has made a real mess of this whole concept of Tendinitis, Bursitis, Synovitis, and/or Tenosynovitis of the Shoulder ...
Code Set for "Shoulder Lesions.". Unfortunately, it/M75 does not include "Rotator Cuff Tendinitis" in its list of shoulder disorders, even if it is probably the most frequent diagnosis made to explain shoulder pain.
