Tenseoynovitis is caused when the sheath--or casing--around the tendon becomes inflamed because of overuse. This inflamed sheath can fill up with fluid, causing severe pain. Sometimes this swollen sheath causes a bump under the skin, often on the wrist, called a ganglion cyst.

Tendinitis
Caused when the tendons in the hand and wrist become inflamed from repeated stressful movements of the wrist, such as from folding boxes. Sometimes the fibers that make up the tendon can actually tear. If this condition is left untreated, the tendon may be permanently weakened.

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
This term issued to describe the condition caused by the pinching or squeezing of the nerves and blood vessels between the neck and shoulder. This can happen when work tasks require frequent reaching above the shoulder. Thoracic outlet syndrome is rare and difficult to diagnose with certainty. Studies have shown that many workers who were told they have thoracic outlet syndrome really had carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome can cause shoulder pain--as well as wrist pain. Workers who have been diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome, therefore, may well have been mis-diagnosed. Because of this confusion, studies recommend that these workers be treated as though they have carpal tunnel syndrome.
