The best treatment is surgery. Without it the pain will continue and only get worse. For some the pain goes away but for others the pain remains everybody is different. I find that a heating pad helps some and a brace helps some as well.

Treatment is dependant of the stage you are. A stage 1 is usually treated by casting, splinting, or just a brace. Stage 2 might require surgery, usually a radial or ulna shortening but occasionally a partial row carpedectomy. Stage 3 is split intotwo with a 3a and 3b. The farther you progress, the more aggressive the treatment usually. By this point, most opt for a full or partial fusion, a prc,wrist replacement, or elect for multiple surgeries. Ro be honest, the best treatment is whatevr the individual deems best and wht they want to accomplish.

Surgery is the only option really. Early stage may require immobilization (wearing a splint for example) to see if the blood supply comes back. There are also a few different surgeries that can be performed.
