What Is De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis? AKA, Mommy Thumb Or Gamer’s / Texter’s Thumb
Mothers and fathers get this thumb injury from picking up their babies... Gamers from their controllers... Cell phone users from too much texting – Percussionists, golfers and anglers, too!
You might think it's just a SIMPLE case of Tendonitis but it's actually a slightly more complicated tendon syndrome known as a 'Tenosynovitis.'
It's often commonly referred to as Mommy Thumb, Mother's Wrist, Texter's Thumb, Gamer's Thumb and Smartphone Thumb.
Learn all about De Quervain's Tenosynovitis in this podcast episode by Allen Willette from Tennis Elbow Classroom, including:
The symptoms of this painful thumb condition.
The causes and nature of De Quervain's.
And what's really going on in the tendons and why it's important to understand it.
We go deeper than your typical conventional medical view which tends to be overly focused on suppression symptoms rather than dealing with the underlying causes.
