Why does my arm still hurt?

I went to the doctor and had x-rays done on my wrist and thumb b/c it was causing me pain. They diagnosed me with tendinitis and put my hand in a splint. I can't move my hand yet it still causes great pain. they didnt give me anything for pain they just told me to take aleve or something. Why does my hand still hurt when I am not even moving it? Also, is there a possibility my arm could be put in a cast if the splint doesnt work?

Why does my arm still hurt?
Tendonitis takes time to heal. The splint may prevent you from injuring it further, but it won't make all of the pain go away. Have you tried Aleve or Advil?
