Summary
A 21-year-old female softball pitcher had a surgical ulnar nerve transposition/release for pain in her pitching arm three months ago. Now she still complains of severe pain daily. She can barely bend her elbow and has decreased function of her hand. She notes increased sensitivity to cold temperatures and generalized swelling, which is more pronounced on the ulnar side of her hand. She is in your office for pain management. What are your concerns? What is her diagnosis? How will you confirm the diagnosis? How will you treat the patient’s pain?
