Can De Quervain's syndrome cause nerve damage?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

• De Quervain's tenosynovitis is purely an entrapment tendinitis of the tendons contained within the first dorsal compartment at the wrist. It causes pain during thumb motion.

• After the release procedure, you should feel relief. Sometimes the healing takes time, and you may feel some residual pain.

• Nerve damage associated with it is not that common though it cannot be entirely ruled out.

• You can take supplements of Vitamin B complex to help the healing process. Take care.
