“…Specifically, Roh et al 3 reported that female sex, longer symptom duration, and negative DRUJ stress tests were associated with poor clinical outcomes. Prosser et al 8 reported that a poor baseline functional score and a longer duration of symptoms were significant predictors of poor outcomes. Ruch et al 9 reported that advanced age and ulnar positive variance were correlated with poor outcomes.…”

The arthroscopic repair of avulsed triangular fibrocartilage complex generally demonstrates a satisfactory outcome after ruling out additional combined pathologies for ulnar-sided wrist pain. Previous studies have reported that 10% to 20% of patients complain of dissatisfaction with this surgical treatment, suggesting that it is not effective for all patients. Several prognostic factors for poor outcomes such as female gender, chronicity, baseline functional state, and reduced pronator quadratus muscle mass have been proposed. Transosseus foveal repair may be particularly beneficial in chronic cases compared with capsular repair, enhancing the healing rate between the scarred end of the triangular fibrocartilage complex and the bone with greater mechanical strength. However, unaccounted patient variables in uncontrolled small cases series could significantly complicate and confound the point of care application of the findings, and thus larger comprehensive studies are required to confirm these results.

“…The bodily pain experienced by mothers reduces their ability to take care of themselves and their quality of life (QOL) and can lead to postpartum depression. If the pain progresses chronically, it can cause functional disability and reduced work ability for the rest of their lives [11][12][13]. In addition, postpartum pain adversely affects baby care, causing negative maternal-infant attachment that is not controlled by mood, and secondary depression can adversely affect infant neurocognitive development [13,14].…”

Mothers in the postpartum period often experience musculoskeletal disorders and pain, impacting their ability to care for themselves and their infants. Conventional treatments have limitations, prompting interest in alternative options like herbal medicine. This systematic review aimed to confirm the effectiveness and safety of herbal medicine treatment to improve maternal health in patients with postpartum pain (puerperal wind syndrome). We searched eight electronic databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the effects of herbal medicines on puerperal wind syndrome. Nine RCTs, including 652 patients, were selected. Following a meta-analysis of RCTs, both herbal medicine and combination treatments improved the visual analog scale scores, total effective rate, scores of Traditional Chinese Medicine syndromes, Oswestry Disability Index, and quality of life in patients with role-emotional puerperal wind syndrome. All adverse events were minor, and the incidence rate was not high compared with that of the control group. In conclusion, herbal medicine supports the improvement in pain, other systemic symptoms, and the quality of life of patients with puerperal wind syndrome. Moreover, no serious side effects were observed; therefore, herbal medicines appear to be safe. It can be the preferred treatment option for puerperal wind syndrome, which is currently managed symptomatically.

“…Public Health 2021, 18, 3564 2 of 10 most of the symptoms were expressed on the radial side of the wrist, and it was reported that the risk of wrist pain was more than twice as high in the case of breastfeeding [5]. These symptoms develop into chronic pain, which can cause serious dysfunction, quality of life problems, and reduced work time; therefore, appropriate management is necessary [8].…”

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of wrist stabilization exercise combined with taping on wrist pain, disability, and quality of life in postpartum women with wrist pain. Forty-five patients with wrist pain were recruited and randomly divided into three groups: wrist stabilization exercise + taping therapy (WSE + TT) group (n = 15), wrist stabilization exercise (WSE) group (n = 15), and control group (n = 15). The WSE + TT and WSE groups performed wrist stabilization exercises for 40 min (once a day, five times a week for eight weeks), and the control group performed passive range of motion (P-ROM) exercise for the same amount of time. Additionally, the WSE + TT group attached taping to the wrist and forearm during the training period. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to assess pain level of the wrist. The Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) and the Short Form-36 (SF-36) were used to evaluate the degree of wrist disability and quality of life, respectively. The WSE + TT group showed a significant decrease in wrist pain and functional disability compared to two groups (p < 0.05). Significant improvement in the SF-36 score was observed in the WSE + TT and WSE groups compared to that in the control group (p < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the WSE + TT and WSE groups in the SF-36. Our findings indicate that wrist stabilization exercise combined with taping is beneficial and effective in managing wrist pain and disability in postpartum women with wrist pain.
