Extensor Digitorum Strapping Technique
In this video, Melbourne Hand Rehab Senior Physiotherapist Paul Fitz-Patrick demonstrates Extensor Digitorum Strapping. This technique is a nice way to wean out of a wrist brace for extensor tendinopathy.
Tendinopathy (previously called tendonitis) is a term used to describe pain, swelling and damage to any tendon in the body. Tendinopathy can be caused by injury, overuse of the tendon, or wear and tear through ageing.
The condition commonly occurs after an extra ‘load’ on the tendon. This ‘load’ can be an overly strong stretch, lifting a heavy weight, or increased repetitive use of the tendon. Wrist and hand tendinopathy is common in people whose work requires repeated use of their hands, such as musicians and computer typists.
After assessment, tendinopathy treatment usually involves:
- Education and advice on load management
- Splinting or taping to rest the area – a custom-made splint will be made by your hand therapy practitioner at the initial appointment
- Massage, dry needling or ice
- A graduated exercise program
- A schedule for returning to work or play (music or sport).
If you are experiencing finger, hand or wrist pain, don’t hesitate to get in touch. We’d love to help you.
