Universal wrist brace AM-SP-02

Finger snapping, that is, jumping or shooting. It is a disease caused by thickening of the tendon, narrowing of its sheath and inflammation of the annular ligament, which leads to a reduction in tendon slip and finger movements. Typically, this condition affects the tendon of the flexor muscle of the long thumb at the level of the metacarpodigital joint.

This is one of the most common causes of pain in the hand, usually affecting women aged 40-60. The activity leading to this disease is primarily strictly manual activities, i.e. playing instruments, knitting or hand weaving.

The snapping thumb is manifested by soreness and the inability to straighten and bend the finger, as well as the occurrence of a painful lump, caused by tendon bending. Often the finger is blocked in the extension, also failure to treat this disease results in serious contractures in the joints of the thumb and complete impairment of hand function.

In the case of starting surgery, pharmacological treatment (NSAIDs) or physical therapy, the priority is to immobilize the thumb, especially during acute inflammation.
