A 22 year old college athlete had his cast removed 2 days ago. Eight weeks ago he sustained a Colles’ fracture of his dominant right wrist when he fell on an outstretched hand during a basketball game. He presents to outpatient PT with reports of some pain in his hand with numbness and tingling in his thumb, index, middle and half of his ring finger. His right grip strength is 50% weaker than the left. There is observable atrophy in the right thenar eminence, and he describes a “pressure” sensation at his wrist. He notices his right hand falls asleep sometimes when doing homework on the computer. What do you think is going on?
