Comparing hand therapy for De Quervain's disease after steroid injection
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of hand therapy for patients with De Quervain's disease, a painful condition affecting the thumb tendons. One group receives standard hand therapy, while the other gets a new approach after an ultrasound-guided steroid injection.
