Wrist Tendonitis

R.I.C.E:

Rest your injured wrist and hand.

Ice or a cold pack to your wrist for 15-20 minutes, 4 times per day for several days.

Compression wrap your wrist in an elastic support or use a wrist brace made specifically for tendonitis. This will limit the swelling and give support to your wrist.

Elevation, keep your injured wrist raised above the level of your heart for 48 hours up on a pillow. This will help drain fluid and reduce swelling. Anti-inflammatories may be part of your treatment from you doctor.
