DeQuervain's: Time to go back to see your doc since pain is getting worse. You may need an xray. Even a referral to see a hand specialist. In the meantime, remember RICE for injuries: Rest, Ice, Compression & Elevation. Maybe NSAIDs like ibuprofen. And check out http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/de-quervains-tenosynovitis/basics/definition/con-20027238 for more info while waiting for an appointment.
