1 Answer

A. New mothers can get painful thumbs and wrists. This is because of the extra pressure on their hands from lifting and holding their babies. This condition is known as de Quervain's tenosynovitis, mother's wrist or baby wrist. The pain is caused by irritation of the covering around the tendons going to your thumb.
