Positive Patient Experience 🌟 | “Dr. Ludwig is terrific. He was clear on the options, procedure, and recovery process. He's highly competent and has an excellent bedside manner. He listens and responds without talking over you or being condescending. When I had an issue, he listened thoughtfully and let me know his course of action. It's very refreshing to have such good, caring physicians in northern Arizona.” –Susan B.

Wrist tendinitis occurs when the tendons around the wrist become irritated or inflamed—often from overuse, repetitive motion, or sudden increases in activity. Symptoms may include pain with movement, swelling, stiffness, and reduced grip strength.

When caught early, most cases improve with rest, activity modification, splinting, and physical therapy. Persistent pain may require guidance from a specialist.

If you think you have wrist tendinitis, call us today!
