Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Comparatively assess which group had a higher cure rate, simple aspiration group, aspiration group with corticosteroid infiltration (methylpredinisone 40mg / 2ml) or aspiration and infiltration with 75% hypertonic glucose after 1 year of follow-up.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Ascertain the side effects of each treatment in the study: .this evaluation will be carried out through questions to the patient such as edema, pain and hyperemia and also through physical examination of the skin and skin necrosis or hypochromia will be evaluated. ;Functional analysis of the hand and wrist in relation to the treatment groups, the functional questionnaire will be carried out through the Brief Michigan Questionaire, the grip strength will be performed through the average force by the JAMMAR dynamometer, the pain will be assessed by the visual analog scale (VAS) ) which is numbered from 1 to 10 and lastly the range of motion of the wrist through a goniometer	—
