Test protocol

De Quervain tenosynovitis is a painful wrist condition that leads to difficulty with activities of daily living. It is a stenosing tenosynovitis of the first dorsal compartment of the wrist. Pain, which is the primary complaint, is typically located on the radial side (Wu et al., 2018) and is aggravated by thumb abduction, gripping, and ulnar deviation of the wrist (Ashraf and Devadoss, 2014).
