    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ganglion_cyst

    The cysts may intrude into the spine, which may cause pain and dysesthesia in distant extremities. [ 20 ] Cystic adventitial disease , in which a cyst occurs within the popliteal artery near the knee, has been proposed recently to occur by an articular mechanism, with a conduit leading from the joint, similar to the development of ganglion ...

  3. Intersection syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_syndrome

    The mechanism of injury is usually repetitive resisted extension, as with rowing, weight lifting, or pulling. [citation needed] Intersection syndrome is often confused with another condition called DeQuervain's syndrome, which is an irritation of the thumb-sided set of tendons at the wrist, called the first dorsal compartment.

  4. Extensor tendon compartments of the wrist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensor_tendon...

    Any movement of the thumb and wrist causes the patient pain, inflammation and swelling. The presence of anomalous or variant muscles in the fourth compartment may result in chronic dorsal wrist pain, a condition known as the fourth compartment syndrome. [4] Intersection syndrome can be caused by direct trauma to the second extensor compartment.

  5. Wrist pain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrist_pain

    Wrist structures prone to injury are the triangular fibrocartilage complex and the scapholunate ligament. [1] Wrist sprains may occur when a ligament is ruptured or lacerated in severe trauma, stretched or twisted. [1] Commonly, wrist pain is caused by sudden load-bearing or twisting effects, such as falling from a height with an outstretched ...

  6. Abnormal posturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abnormal_posturing

    Abnormal posturing is an involuntary flexion or extension of the arms and legs, indicating severe brain injury. It occurs when one set of muscles becomes incapacitated while the opposing set is not, and an external stimulus such as pain causes the working set of muscles to contract. [1] The posturing may also occur without a stimulus.

  7. Wrist drop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrist_drop

    Wrist drop is a medical condition in which the wrist and the fingers cannot extend at the metacarpophalangeal joints. The wrist remains partially flexed due to an opposing action of flexor muscles of the forearm. As a result, the extensor muscles in the posterior compartment remain paralyzed.

  8. Wrist osteoarthritis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrist_osteoarthritis

    Activities that use forceful wrist extension such as rising from a chair or push-ups may be painful. In the absence of gout, chondrocalcinosis, rheumatoid arthritis, or prior distal radius fracture, a person with gradual onset limited motion and pain in the wrist likely has wrist osteoarthritis. [citation needed]

  9. Radial tunnel syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_tunnel_syndrome

    The chief complaint of this disease is usually pain in the dorsal aspect of the upper forearm, and any weakness described is secondary to the pain. Tenderness to palpation occurs over the area of the radial neck. Also, the disease can be diagnosed by a positive "middle finger test", where resisted middle finger extension produces pain.
