Finger pain when gripping

Common Questions and Answers about Finger pain when gripping

finger

Avatar n tn I was pulling open my cars jammed ashtray, it was stuck so I pulled harder and my 2 fingers....
Avatar n tn There is a clear swelling in the area obvious on touching and is sensitive to pressure. Gripping things tightly or pressing the nodule causes pain. I do not appear to have any limitations in mobility of the finger at the moment although there are the few occasional moments when I have felt some discomfort while typing. My GP believes it is a swelling of the tendon and sheath which is a precursor to trigger finger.
Avatar n tn Trigger finger treatment varies depending on its severity and duration. Symptoms of trigger finger develop when the ring, middle, or index finger attempts to flex closed while gripping. Stretching, ice, and anti-inflammation medications should be tried to start with. Steroid injections like cortisone are used as a treatment for trigger finger. Surgery is the last option to remove the scar tissue. Take care!
Avatar m tn This is associated with catching, snapping or locking of the involved finger flexor tendon, resulting in inability to move the finger and pain. The diagnostic thing is that you can unlock the lock and start the finger functioning again. Treatment is by injecting steroid into the tendon. If that fails, this can be surgically corrected. Please consult an orthopedic specialist. Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Avatar m tn I cannot pinpoint the exact cause of the injury. about six weeks ago I noticed shooting pain when i pushed the middle finger laterally while isolated from the other fingers across the sides of the knuckle. I also feel sharp pain when making a tight fist in the main knuckle or gripping my hand tightly around the grip on a weight.
Avatar f tn I have had fibromyalgia for the last two years and I started to develop another symptom that is really strange. Since I started exercising again when I wake up in the middle of the night I cannot bend my fingers and my hand is in alot of pain. Usually by morning when I'm moving around more they start to loosen up and I don't have any pain. I do notice when I do any exercise with my arms and shoulders my hands and fingers hurt. Anyone else had this problem?
Avatar n tn I have had trigger-finger surgery left middle due to repetative gripping action due to my occupation. I cannot extend finger backwards, cannot place fingers together, get incredible undesrible pain simply doing nothing. Sometimes pain shoots up inside of my palm through my forearm to elbow almost like electrical shock. It is swollen-surgery performed 2/15. I am following exercises doctor advised to no avail. Not on any medication except ibuprofen.
Avatar n tn its often swollen and i noticed a bruise on the top of my hand in that area today. i had an xray when the pain started and they saw nothing. it does not seem to be improving although definitely gets irritated upon use, unfortunately it being my right hand there is not much i can do to limit the use. i experience weakness when gripping lifting turning with the hand and there is sharp pain in between the two knuckles that stretches into the hand.
Avatar f tn Not too long after the injury I developed a lump/bump on the inside of the PIP joint tha faces anatomically towards the middle finger, clicking sensation in this bump area when bending the finger, pain when bending and now pain into top of hand. Also tingling feeling in lump area. Finally after 9 months after the injury my family doctor referred me to a sports medicine doctor. He took an xray and you could see a lump on the inside of the PIP joint. Not huge but visible on xray.
Avatar m tn s not rhythmic and occurs here and there, sometimes during rest, sometimes when I am gripping something not too tightly, and just now I put my hands behind my head and could feel it. It almost feels "nervey" if that makes any sense. It's now been occurring for the past 2-3 days. I do exercise as much as I can with having a new baby around :-) and I also just started using hand grippers for strengthning so don't know if that has triggered anything or not.
Avatar n tn (Not center chest, but left side mostly.) When the pain starts, it is much worse when I try to inhale. It is relieved when I slow down or stop - but not immediately. I have had a test (forgot the name) 2 years ago and Dr. said I have tricuspid regurg, but this should not be causing the pain. She said all things looked clear but to check it again in a year. The pain is predictable. When I exercise and get my heart rate up this pain grips my chest and I can hardly catch my breath.
Avatar f tn Since this injury I get burning pain in the palm of my hand below the little and ring finger. Increased numbness in little and ring finger. If I bend my elbow send electrical shock/sensation up my arm to the wrist. The incision area in my elbow does have some mild burning but palm of hand is worse. My wrist/thumb area where I had the neuroma surgery is burning now since this injury.
574735 tn?1232930123 Since then she has experienced Blood in her stool two or three times a week, numbness in her finger, tingling in her feet, bumps on her breasts, a recurring foul odor from under her breasts (even after bathing and washing them several times a day), and gripping muscle pain with soreness after pain subsides. These symptoms are not on a regular basis, and they don't all happen at the same time.
Avatar m tn The median nerve provides sensation to the palm side of the thumb, index, middle fingers, as well as the inside half of the ring finger and muscle power to the thumb. When this nerve becomes pinched, numbness, tingling and sometimes pain of the affected fingers and hand may occur and radiate into the forearm. excessive repetitive movements of the arms, wrists or hands can aggravate the carpal tunnel bringing out the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome.
Avatar f tn I'm 33 weeks and 4days. I've noticed these past few days my finger have been aching and like my hand is bruised. Anyone else feeling this in your hands?
3173096 tn?1344204216 My right elbow has been hurting for a few months, inner bone, no swelling noticed, no arm or wrist pain, no elbow pain when flexing fingers or gripping....now my left elbow is hurting the same way. and if I bump this inner bone, wow it really hurts... I am 52 yr old woman, physically fit, run 25+ miles a week, I do a small routine of weights, push ups,stretches, lunges daily, I am a vet tech, so I wrestle with pets all day, do some computer work, but not a lot...
241234 tn?1220980556 I don't have enough finger movement to attempt CIMT. What have you found or your doctor recommended that can bring back finger/hand/wrist function.Basically I know I need to move hand control to a totally different part of my brain. For my arm I can use two handed weight machines at the 'Y' and then remove the good arm as the affected arm gets some movement, which does mean that my fingers get some grasp but mostly tone is used. I bought my own E-stim machine for finger extension.
Avatar f tn I had horrible pain in my bottom knuckle on my thumb, and now the knuckles in my middle and ring finger are hurting. I'm sorry for such a long post, but I'm really hoping someone might have some advice. I'm a single mother and I don't have insurance so I can't afford to go to a doctor. Are there any home remedies that might help? Any advice that I could get would be greatly appreciated. I'm pretty desperate. Thank you so much for reading if you made it this far!
Avatar m tn This isnt the first time the pain comes, if i throw anything before i started playing tennis, the pain comes also and its quite severe if i keep throwing or playing. Not sure what it is. Please help.
975514 tn?1324997938 One time recently, I had such a hard time with gripping and pain that I dropped a hot curling iron on my face while doing my hair. I burnt my face so bad everyone at work thought my husband beat me up. It was embarrassing. I have been diagnosed with Fibromyaglia. I once had a doctor try to say it was caused from my neck, but an MRI only showed minor bulges in my neck.
Avatar n tn i am getting a gripping /stabbing pain just under my chest left side its there even when i breath i do feel lathelgic ..... should i go to see my g.
Avatar f tn So for about a week now when I lay down at night my right arm mainly will go completely numb like I'm getting no blood flow to it. So I'll have to sit up and shake my arms to get the feeling back. So at first I thought I just slept on them wrong that night but it has done it every night since. Now even throughout the day my arms ache so bad from the elbow down that it hurts to do anything that I have to use arm strength.
Avatar m tn Hi Someone recently performed oral sex on me, during this they for some reason started gripping my penis very hard, squeezing it hard. This sometimes lasted for upto 20 seconds over a few minute period. I wish I had stopped them doing it but I didn't. Can this do any permanenent damage to my penis or make it curved? It was only one time that this happened? Should I stop masturbating?
Avatar m tn Anyways, if anyone can chime in I would greatly appreciate it. When the pain pops up, I have to take at least a few days off from running and it is messing with my training. I have my first race coming up on June 9th and am hoping to be able to run in it, while keeping in my mind that I will still have 3 more races to go over the next 3 months.
Avatar m tn Now today i just tried to open a jar with a plastic top using a forced grip. When I put down the jar i saw the same red/purple dots where my hand and finger were gripping the jar. Could this be a bleeding disorder?
