At the time of the examination, the patient had chronic, multiple-joint pain in the bilateral first metatarsophalangeals, left anterior ankle, bilateral anteromedial knees, left hip, both shoulders, right wrist, bilateral second metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints, and right first carpometacarpal joint.
Care was taken to ensure that the stretching force was at the wrist joint, not distally at the carpometacarpal joint, as this would result in hyperextension of the carpometacarpal joint.
9] Other findings may include decreased abduction range of motion (ROM) of the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb, palpable thickening of the extensor sheath and of the tendons distal to the extensor tunnel, and crepitus of tendons moving through the extensor sheath.
