Does your thumb hurt from doing repetitive movements such as texting or scrolling? In this episode, we will dive into a very common pain and swelling around the thumb tendons. In the past, we used to call it the Blackberry thumb, but now it’s more like iPhone or Android thumb. This condition is known as de Quervain tenosynovitis.

We’ll discuss how your patient might present including tenderness, difficulty grasping objects and pain when twisting their wrist. Then, we’ll provide the different treatments depending on the severity such as splints, NSAIDs or surgery.

Join Dr. Niket Sonpal as he provides us with a roadmap to recovery for de Quervain tenosynovitis.
