Avatar m tn Go for an Orthopaedician examination and confirm the diagnosis and you would need rest, strapping of that finger and anti inflammatory drugs to cure your problem. Take care!
Avatar m tn I was in excruciating pain for a few hours, but I did not go to the ER. Instead, I iced my hand and took aspirin for a few days and tried to lay off my "sprain". I never splinted my hand. A few weeks later I started using my hand to open doors, play guitar, etc, with still minor pain. It has been two months now and my pointer finger still hurts a little when I play guitar or press my bike brake.
Avatar m tn The index finger is the worst, being numb during most of the day. The middle finger, ring finger and thumb also have burns. All fingers are dexterous, I can feel pressure when applied and nerves seem ok. The index finger is burned on the area near the nail bed including the nail itself, the burn is isolated to the right side of the nail and finger. My question being what will a Doctor do to ease my pain and help the healing process?
Avatar m tn On the 6th day, the throat slight burning was back again, accompanied by moderate/slight (but definitely noticeable) pain on the left side of neck, hard to say where exactly, but close to below the left ear by approx 2 fingerswidth and suddenly i noticed a pinkish patch (size of a finger tip or a bit more) on the back of the hand that i inserted the finger in her vagina.
Avatar f tn t find anything but did think I had carpal tunnel and the nerve test for that is what started me on the path to a MS diagnosis. The last month my finger pain has really gotten bad and has now started in on my right hand too - and that started with a bout of SHARP pain in the pinky finger joint but is now in the middle, ring, pinky on that hand too - still worse on the left. what gives?
Avatar n tn So the first day i started having pain in my middle finger of my right hand and i thought nothing of it as each day went by it started to swell more and more now there is a huge bump on my finger that hurts if i move or touch it against anything. then today i got a similar bump on my big toe on my right foot what could this be?
Avatar n tn I am having some knuckle pain on my right hand on my middle finger, however i do not remember hurting my hand at all, there is no swelling and i can keep it in the straight position however when i bend it the pain comes. any suggestions?
2068457 tn?1331879391 I woke up last year at 2am with excruciating pain in my left shoulder (deltoids) it was the most pain i have ever experienced. it lasted for about 2 - 4 minutes. The next morning i could not lift my arm. I went to the physio for about 4 weeks, no improvement. I then went to an osteopath after 3 sessions there was a considerable improvement. It was better but not near perfect 70%.
Avatar m tn Hi, I am a male who Had unprotected oral sex both given and received with a prostitute, along with protected vaginal sex, and i actually used my finger insert in her vagina, which i noticed later to have been previously scratched with skin peeled and red cut (not bleeding though but red , probably stopped bleed the day before or so).
Avatar m tn I have lost grabbing force my left hand..Little finger numb days ago..still like that.
Avatar m tn I recently went to the doctor for pain in my shoulder, arm and ring finger and pinky finger feeling like they are asleep all the time. I am no longer able to close index finger to the finger next to it. I have lost strength and control in my fingers indicated. The pain in my shoulder is getting sever. The doctor looked at both shoulders and said that I have muscle atrophy in the shoulder and arm. He said that it could be something soft tissue causing nerve intrusion.
Avatar f tn This summer my doctor diagnosed the shocks of pain through my right hand has Carpel Tunnel. I live in Michigan so when the cold came around in November, my right hand has started doing something strange. My right pointer finger now turns white and goes numb whenever I step outside. Now you may think I just need to wear gloves, the thing is that this occurs with even holding a cold class. My friends call me ET because it's so white it almost glows.
Avatar f tn Which part of the finger is painful and does it affect both hands? Aside from the finger pain, what other symptoms are present? Finger pain is pain may be attributed to rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, injury, blood flow problems, nerve problems and even from conditions such as diabetes. Try to avoid activities that cause or worsen pain. Anti-inflammatory medication can also help. If it persists, it is best that you have this checked by your doctor for proper diagnosis.
Avatar n tn i thought it was just a jam. now it still hurts but only if i stretch it or movie alot. it is my right middle finger and it hurts around the knuckle. it hurts alittle to the right and to the left of the knuckle when i push down on it also. but there is absolutely no swelling at all. and also no difference in color or size hen my other middle finger. i was wondering whats wrong with it, and if i should do anything about it.
Avatar f tn The finger gets very tender. Unfortunately, since I was diagnosed with MRSA last year in that same finger, I assumed each recurrence was MRSA. MRSA infections need to be drained to get better. So I was playing doctor at home and cutting the blisters open and draining them. And that is exactly what you don't do with herpes blisters. Luckily, I have been keeping them covered since MRSA is also something you don't want to be spreading.
Avatar m tn I've been experiencing numb fingertips on my right hand (middle ring and little finger). It pops up whenever I go from my car to my house - office to my car, that kind of thing. Literally from half way down to the fingertips they go absolutely bloodless and numb. No tingling or warning just sudden cold. This seems to be a long line of health problems (slipped disc, Amenorrhea, depression). I saw my GP, he suggested I write a diary about it for 3 weeks and then go back.
Avatar f tn I have a friend in Virginia who had the exact trouble in the knuckle of her middle finger. She did'nt cut it open, but she soaked it in warm salt water, advice she'd gotten from an elderly woman at her church. After she soaked it the pain became unbearable & she went to her Dr. His diagnosis was Gout. He performed outpatient surgery to remove the infection. She's fine now, but she had a rough time of it. She's 82 years old.
772218 tn?1249131067 If it is carpel then the pain should be in the thumb, index finger and middle finger area of your hand. If it is the outside two fingers of your hand then it would suggest the ulnar nerve. Considering you experience it in arm, feet, legs; I would suggest talking to your doctor and let them lead you in the right direction for testing and diagnosis.
Avatar f tn A couple days later, my left ring finger started itching really bad and the next day it had a cluster of blisters and were painful. I went back to my dermatologist to have her look at the blisters. She said my test came back positive for hsv-2. I am devastated! And why is it spreading? I am VERY cautious since I didn't know what it was. Never scratched one spot and scratched another. I wash my hands thoroughly and excessively!
Avatar f tn t do finger to nose test, extreme neck pain, more tachycardias, pinky finger keeps moving outward and hurts continually. If I find out anything, I will let you know. I have been tested for lyme disease and it was negative.
Avatar m tn I am a 21 year old female with no prior skin ailments with the exception of some mild teenage acne. approximately one month ago i noticed the skin on my left index finger appreared very dry so i began treating it with cuticle oil and heavy moisturizures. After a week of no noticible improvement, a friend suggested the possibility of fungal nail infection, although my nail was clear and growing normally. I used Dr. G's Clear Nail Antimicrobial Solution as directed (7 days, twice daily).
Avatar n tn Since then i have had pain in my finger, mostly at the first joint from the knuckle. I cannot completely outstretch my finger because that is when the pain starts. Whats wrong and should i see a doctor?
Avatar m tn This is due to me constantly hitting hard surfaces. i have no pain in that particular finger or knuckle or any part of the hand but i cant fully raise my right ring finger. It gets to about half way and i cannot raise it anymore unless i force it up with my other hand. Apart from that i have full use of my right hand and no pain in or around the knuckle or finger. Any ideas whats wrong??
Avatar f tn Ring finger has two bumps on the underside, middle of finger, light red tinge. Top of hand, middle of reverse palm, one swollen red spot. Pain on pressure only. Urgent Care PA detected murmur. No fever after nine days. Amoxicillin for ten days. Nine years ago I had bacterial endocarditis from dentist, left me in wheelchair, amnesia and OIC. Will amoxicillin really help kill any infection or is an Echo, cardiologists and fright in my future?
