Abstract:
Chronic wrist pain is among the most difficult diagnostic and therapeutic challenges faced by hand surgeons. The causes are often elusive, of long duration, and not uncovered easily by routine diagnostic methods. This article outlines a systematic evaluation of the patient with chronic wrist pain to determine which of many potential conditions is the cause of the wrist pain so an effective therapeutic plan can be formulated.
