Introduction
The anatomy of the forearm, hand, and wrist is a compact package. Repetitive activities come with a price of soft-tissue dysfunction.

Injuries and Overuse Syndromes
Sprains are injuries that often tear ligaments and soft tissue and bruise nerves. Strains are injuries to the soft tissue, such as a stretch or tear to a tendon or muscle. Both injuries have levels of severity.

Injuries and Overuse Syndromes (cont.)
Fractures and lacerations are frequent traumatic results to hand and wrist injuries. Tendonitis is defined as an inflammation of a tendon. Different types of tendonitis could include a partial tear from the bone or a lesion in the body of the tendon.

Injuries and Overuse Syndromes (cont.)
An adhesion may be a painful scar. Tendonosis is defined as a breakdown in collagen fibers in the tissue. Collagen is made up mostly of protein and is composed of the white fibers of connective tissue.

Injuries and Overuse Syndromes (cont.)
Tenosynovitis is an inflammation of a tendon sheath. Tendon sheaths are Saran-wrap-like connective tissue that surround individual groups of tendons.

Other Soft-Tissue Issues
A wrist ganglion is a cyst that usually protrudes on the dorsal side of the wrist. Dupuytren’s contracture is a debilitating hand condition that can inhibit normal hand and finger function.

Nerve Complaints
Carpal tunnel syndrome is an inflammatory condition of the median nerve. Causes include: small tumors and/or ganglion, fluid retention in pregnancy, shape of the tunnel, a depressed capitate bone, tenosynovitis, and flexed wrist positions.

11-12
Nerve Complaints (cont.)
The median nerve can be entrapped outside of the carpal tunnel by the pronator teres or pectoralis minor. Bony compressions of the brachial plexus can reduce innervation to the median nerve and produce distal symptoms.

11-13
Nerve Complaints (cont.)
The radial nerve can become entrapped by the triceps brachii or by the supinator. Ulnar nerve entrapment in the arm and flexor carpi ulnaris can cause weakness of grip. The cubital tunnel can compress the ulnar nerve.

11-14
Sleep Positions and Posture
Question clients about sleep positions. Upper extremities above the head in sleep can help the pectoralis minor to entrap the brachial plexus. A fetal sleep position encourages rounded shoulder postures.

Arthritis, Osteoarthritis, Degenerative Disk Disease, and Cervical Subluxations
Arthritis is an inflammation of a joint and is common in the aging process. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease common in the spine. Spurs are bony growth on the side of the vertebrae.

Arthritis, Osteoarthritis, Degenerative Disk Disease, and Cervical Subluxations
(cont.)
Degenerative disk disease is the depletion of the disk space between the vertebrae. It is often present with osteoarthritis. A subluxation is a joint that is slightly ajar that a chiropractor could align or adjust.

Unwinding the Forearm Muscles (cont.)
Probable muscles involved in medial epicondylitis: pronator teres, flexor carpi ulnaris and radialis, flexor digitorum superficialis, and flexor digitorum profundus. Do not overlook the biceps and brachialis in the arm.

Not all hand and wrist pain is from repetitive action of the forearm muscles. Check infraspinatus, subscapularis, scalenes, and pectoralis major and minor. Relax the shoulder girdle muscles first and work down to the forearm.
