hello dr mark,
actually, this is my carpal navicular they are referring to. i am rather active and had been doing a new workout consisting of pushups and pullups for a few months. i started to have pain in the wrist and thumb. i have always had flair ups on this wrist and thought maybe it was carpel tunnel syndrome. so this pain started and i just kept working out on the wrist not wanting to stop activity. i then did some kickboxing and hit a heavyweight bag about 3-4 weeks ago and the pain got a little worse...........i HAD to stop working out. i had a x ray done but 3-4 weeks have already passed since the pain. i was then sent for an mri and what i wrote in about was the wet read on the mri. i have been casted and am wondering why if no fracture has occured? working out is almost impossible with a cast on my right arm and i do not like being inactive..............i am an orthopedists dream in that i always sustain some sort of injury from running or some kind of sport.
