Ulnar Wrist Pain? Master ECU & FCU Assessment in Minutes

Are you assessing patients with ulnar-sided wrist pain? In this video, I demonstrate a structured approach to assessing the Extensor Carpi Ulnaris (ECU) and Flexor Carpi Ulnaris (FCU), including anatomy, palpation, resisted testing, and key clinical considerations. Understanding the role of the ECU tendon and FCU tendon is essential when evaluating wrist pain, tendon pathology, instability, tendinopathy, and overuse injuries. This assessment guide is designed for physiotherapists, occupational therapists, sports therapists, students, and healthcare professionals managing upper limb conditions. Whether you're working in musculoskeletal practice, sports medicine, hand therapy, orthopaedics, or primary care, these examination techniques can help improve confidence and accuracy when assessing wrist pathology.
