Overview
History and symptoms
Complete history will help determine the correct therapy. A detailed and thorough history from the patient is necessary.
History

- History of repetitive movement
- History of inflammatory disease (such as rheumatoid arthritis (RF), [systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE))
- History of trauma or microtrauma
