Tendonitis of the wrist and elbow

Occup Med. 1989 Jul-Sep;4(3):419-31.

Abstract

Although common and frequently transitory, tendonitis in the upper extremity may be quite disabling and resistant to treatment. The physician's best hope for a swift and successful resolution lies in a careful history of all possible precipitating causes and a precise localization of symptoms to obtain an exact diagnosis.
