Dear Sir, A 37-year-old man presented with wrist pain approximately 2 years after an episode of wrist trauma with no bony injury. He gave a history of persistent pain over the flexor carpi radialis (FCR) tendon. He had no relevant medical history and did not take any medication. On examination there was no swelling or deformity. There was tenderness along the FCR tendon and over the scaphotrapeziotrapezoidal (STT) joint. The scapholu-nate ligament (SLL) was not tender. There was normal wrist extension, pronation and supination, and mildly reduced flexion. There was no evidence of scaphoid instability. A provisional diagnosis of FCR tendinitis was made.
