Figured that was my diagnosis and after 3 months finally went in to get it looked at.
Fucking rookies in the office. He goes to inject the wrist with a steroid. Didn’t catch the name I’ll see it on the bill I suppose. Wasn’t cortisone.
He goes to inject and the luer lock comes of and sprays everywhere . Second try went better.
Just trying to make it through summer and golfing. If it doesn’t get better after the shot I’ll probably get it knifed. So laying off the weights for a bit.
Anyone else have this joyous pain in their wrist and if so what did you find helped the most.

It’s pretty rare, but I’ve seen it with baseball players from years of gripping a bat. Short-term, you can do Cortizone, but physical therapy is usually the thing that will get you over it. Or the obvious answer is just rest but we’re bodybuilders. We don’t do that shit. We’re just being real. If those don’t work, then there’s always surgery.

Yeah he said working out wasn’t ideal. No shit. Maybe I’ll give it a week and see how the shot feels.

I did play college ball. So that adds up to your thoughts as well. And rest days are few and far between when I’m at work. On a boat with nothing else to do. No pain no gain.

Have you tried deep tissue on the forearms? Could be pulling on the wrist weird

stretching out the fascia may help relieve some of the tension on the joints. worth a try.
 
Cortezone shot didn’t do shit. Surgery Oct 31. Until
Then fuck it. Keep lifting. Did take a month of to see if that helped. It didn’t. Wreck n pin till then.

Im dealing with dequervains in both wrists. Bilateral sucks ass man. Ive tried the wrist spicas at night, meloxicam, then diclofenac, now im just dealing with it. Next try is the shots. Mine was brought on by letting the carpel tunnel symptoms go on for too long on high hgh use. It had to be that the timing was too perfect. The minute the swelling/tingles started to go away the pain and popping at the base of the thumb started. Did you try prescription anti-inflammatories?

Just OTC stuff. Nothing prescribed. I’m also on Hgh but only running 2 iu. So I wouldn’t think that’s the issue. Years of baseball, hockey, weights are probably the main contributing factors.

I bumped up to 8iu and let it ride for about a month w symptoms. But i also was a triathlete in high school, played college football, and have worked manual labor for 20 years..all while lifting..so yeah all probably contributed. Im surprised they didnt try meloxicam or diclofenac before they gave you the shot.

I just got both my wrists done, plus I had joint replacement in both thumbs along with it. Haven’t lifted in over a year and a half.

Shot did zero for me. They said light sedation. I dunno soon as they hit the button I was out and woke up like I had a great nap . Think it took 12 min or so. Oh shit it’s done.

Did the shot actually give you any relief yet for the wrist pain?

It did nothing for me.
I get the stiches out Thursday. Already have a ton more mobility in the wrist and much more pain free movement. So I’d say so far so good.
