Symptoms: Pain,
numbness, tingling and paresthesia affecting
one-half of the ring finger and the entire
little finger.
-
Cause
of Symptoms: Impingement of the
ulnar nerve on the medial side (Inside) of
the wrist, often caused by strong, short,
overused, compressive flexor and pronator
muscles of the wrist and forearm.
-
Treatment
of Symptoms: FLEXTEND® may help
reduce compression of the ulnar nerve at
the wrist junction by stretching the overly
tight, compressive flexor and pronator muscles
in the hand, wrist and forearm and by strengthening
the extensor and supinator muscles.
The gentle stretching and strengthening exercises of FLEXTEND® can
help maintain the length of the flexor muscles and the strength of
the extensor muscles in order to reduce pressure of structures within
the Guyon's Canal.
