Tenosynovitis
means inflammation of the sheath that surrounds the synovium (the
tendon). The wrist is the most frequently affected joint. The
condition is inflammatory and is characterised by a sharp or pulling
pain, tenderness, swelling and a painful grating sensation in the
joint (i.e. the wrist).
Tenosynovitis
is not only painful, but also very limiting. The pain restricts the
movements and the functionality of the joint, making normal daily
activities difficult. Elimination of pain becomes an urgent priority.
Laser
phototherapy is very effective in the treatment of tenosynovitis.
Regenerative effects of the high energy laser light are apparent in a
short time. Inflammation and swelling reduce fast. The pain subsides
and the healing begins.
Laser
phototherapy offers an affective and viable treatment alternative for
patients aiming to reduce the intake of pain killers due to their
potential side effects.
The
therapists and the patients witness and experience the effectiveness
of laser phototherapy with LaserCat and PalmLaser®, the new
generation phototherapy devices from MedSolution.
