Lynn Hung seeks treatment for ‘mummy’s thumb’
After revealing that she was experiencing postpartum water retention by sharing a
photo of her swollen feet over Weibo last week, Hong Kong model, Lynn Hung, was photographed last Friday (May 4) leaving the doctor’s with her wrists all bandaged up.

When approached by the media, the 37-year-old, who gave birth to twin daughters in Hong Kong last month, confirmed that she was seeing the doctor for a medical condition called ‘mummy’s thumb’ or De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis. The condition, which causes pain in the wrist and lower thumb, is said to affect 50 percent of new mothers due to frequent lifting of their newborn.

Lynn was accompanied by her mother, and was ferried home by her husband, Hong Kong businessman Ken Kwok, swiftly after the treatment.

Ken is said to be very doting towards Lynn, and was reported to have spent HKD$30 million (approximately S$5.1 million) on a house for his mother-in-law, located near their matrimonial home, to make things more convenient for her when she takes care of Lynn.Despite all the discomfort she has faced since giving birth, Lynn, who had always been open about

her desire to have children, appears to be taking it all in stride.

On May 4, she shared a photo of herself posing with victory signs in her bandages over Weibo, and wrote, “It’s painful but I’m happily enduring it.”
