Can you have surgery for atypical thumb tenosynovitis?

If the symptoms of thumb tenosynovitis are atypical, it can be treated conservatively with localized braking, acupuncture, physiotherapy and medication, etc. If the symptoms are more severe, closed treatment and surgery are needed. Thumb tenosynovitis with atypical symptoms may be a mild case, at this time surgery is not recommended, conservative treatment can be taken. Common conservative treatment is early braking of the thumb joint, together with local physical therapy, such as microwave therapy, etc. You can also use hot towels to apply hot compresses to the injured area to improve local blood circulation, reduce inflammation and eliminate edema. In addition, if there is pain, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as celecoxib and nimesulide can be used to reduce inflammation and pain. If the above methods are ineffective, it is recommended to use a mixture of lidocaine hydrochloride and prednisolone acetate for local closed injections or surgical treatment to eliminate the inflammation in the tendon sheath and relieve clinical symptoms. The above drugs should be used in a standardized and rational way under the guidance of professional physicians and pharmacists.
