Is my "wrist tendinitis" actually wrist tendinitis or gout or something else?


So about 8 months ago I begin having pain in my right wrist from repetitively typing on the keyboard and moving the mouse. Went to the doctor and the doctor said I have wrist tendinitis and i shouldn't flex my wrist and not type for more than 2 hours. Back then i was able to bend my wrist a little. Now (8 months later), i can't bend it backwards at all and only a little forward and i havn't been using my right hand at all for the computer. I also cant lift or grasp anything because there's so much pain where the thumb connects to the wrist. So is this really tendinitis or do i have gout in my wrist. I have had gout 5 years ago in my toe and a flare up every year since then. when i have had gout in my toe i havn't been able to bend it upwards only downwards. So i'm wondering is my "wrist tendinitis" actually wrist tendinitis or gout or something else? I hope i've put enough information up here. Also, what can i do to improve my wrist?

get another opinion, while tendonitis in the wrist does happen you should be evaluated for carpal tunnel syndrome which is very common from repetitive motion injury and typing is a major culprit. Invest in a wrist brace. See a chiropractor. Mine helped me and I'm not in pain anymore.

Although the big toe or knee are common areas for gout to act up, I see no reason why it couldn't manifest it self in your wrist joint. Carpal tunnel is also a possibility.
