Re: pain n tenderness at ulnar styloid process

Hello,

The pain you are describing occurs in about 50% of all wrist fractures.

Try the weight bearing test. Simply place your hand on a bathroom scale with the elbow straight and push down to the point of pain. Compare to the other side.

TFCC injuries can be treated and helped with a great splint- do a google search.

Before you buy anything though, try to understand what those numbers are. If your weight bearing is normal and pain free, then look at the ECU tendon.

Hope that helps!

Wendy
