Finger swelling at night

Common Questions and Answers about Finger swelling at night

finger

Avatar m tn There is no swelling or anything in the rest of my fingers, just the pointer and the middle finger. What worries me is that the pain and swelling has gotten worse each night. The only thing I did differently was that I played volleyball for the first time in a while on Monday night. I play at a competitive level so im passing balls that are coming at me pretty fast and hitting or "spiking" balls a lot too. I've played my whole life and this has never happened to me before.
11292060 tn?1418858964 I thought it could be from all the weight gain and I asked my husband if he thought it was the weight gain or if it was swelling but he thought they looked normal. Tonight I can definately tell its swelling. I can push my finger to my ankle and it stays indented. Any suggestions on how to make it go away?
Avatar f tn When i was 11 a girl broke my right index finger at school and no one believed me when I said it was broken. So obviously it wasn't splinted or even buddy tapped. In the eight grade my mom took me to a doctor that told her that my finger did break and that the bone healed eight degrees off. After six months of trying to buddy tape it and splint it, the bone only moved two degrees. The doctor recommended surgery to pin and straighten out the bone and my mom decided on getting me the surgery.
Avatar f tn I have UCTD and my hands swell at night and now I have a finger that has a catch in it and I have to force it open. It was only in the mornings at first but now it’s all day.
Avatar n tn See a doctor? When I was splinting it at night I would wake up, take the splint off, and it felt really sore. Thanks for any help.
Avatar f tn Also in the past couple weeks have begin to notice pinky and ring finger going numb or tingly almost every night.
Avatar f tn Wow, you described me all most exactly with most of those symptoms. that's amazing! You said you had a finger swelling with pain. Was it one finger or multiple. I've had my middle finger in my left finger swelling for over a year now. The doctors said it was psoriatic arthritis, but it's just one finger (and yes I do have psoriasis which has gotten a heck of a lot worse and spread over the last year).
349463 tn?1333571576 I had very severe swelling for several weeks before it developed into preeclampsia and HELLP. At first, I had the swelling with normal BP. Keep your feet up, drink plenty, and lay on your left side. Call the dr in the morning. Watch for symptoms like dizziness, headache, abdominal pain, etc. If you have a BP machine, check it. You can also check it for free in many pharmacies.
Avatar n tn I had a lot of swelling at the end of both of my pregnancies and I had bit feet. Try to put them up which helps with swelling. While it is normal for most women, it also can be a sign of blood pressure issues. Your doctor will check this . My doctor monitored swelling. She'd put her finger into it and it pitted (imprint of her finger stayed for a bit), that was more concerning.
Avatar f tn It may also arise during pregnancy and resolve after delivery of the child. The sensory changes usually are worse at night. Patients may complain of having to shake their hand to wake it up. Over time, you may develop atrophy of muscles of the thumb supplied by the median nerve. I would recommend that you follow up with your local neurologist. He/she will perform a specific neurological examination focused on the median nerve.
Avatar m tn pain, and a hot injury are sign of an infection as well as redness and swelling. Check if you have a fever as well. Best to be safe and have them take a look at it.
Avatar m tn I was tucking in my shirt and heard a pop, and then felt sharp pain in my index finger. Looking at it I noticed the top knuckle is bent in the direction it should bend at about a 45 deg. angle, but it will not straighten. It stays bent at 45 deg. even if I try to straighten out my finger. There isn't a lot of pain. It was numb last night and is still not 100%. The only pain and swelling are actually on the middle knuckle. What should I do?
Avatar m tn May have just badly tweaked it being in that position at night. Thanks again.....
Avatar n tn So I cut dairy out of my diet except for a small amount in waffles in the morning and a small amount in instant mashed potatoes at night. Every thing seemed to be working then out of no where my throat starts closing up again at night. It's frustrating because if the alergy doesn't kill you, the lack of sleep will. I'm going to cut out the waffles and go back to eggs in the morning and see if that corrects it again.
Avatar n tn Hi, I had the same thing. Someone recommended magnets. I didn't believe in it but figured it wouldn't hurt to try. At night I tapped a magnet on top and bottom of the finger and left it there all night. I can't remember how long it took but it did work and never came back. Try it, you'll like it.
Avatar f tn Preeeetttttyyyyyyyyy sure my belly is lopsided. lol awesome! She must be crunched in a ball or something on my right side. && 36weeks Monday btw. Another thing, is anyone having any swelling? I notice I have it if I'm on my feet for more than 8 hours. I went out last night to a stag and doe for 4 hours and noticed at the end of the night my legs and feel looked like elephant size.I think that's normal???
Avatar m tn First it started swelling on my index finger, with a couple of visible red dots under the skin, and then it started on my ring finger, but the swelling was different, it got swollen at one point beyond the big joint of the finger and another swelling at the smaller joint of the finger. This time the swelling was hard to the touch. Like two red dots. And then my little finger started swelling too, but this one was different also.
Avatar n tn Sprains take awhile to heal, Best to keep it splinted tape it to the next finger for a temp and buy a splint at the drug store. Ibroprofen and ice may help relieve the swelling and inflamation. I believe 2-3 weeks is ample time- however if you can not bend it - its probably broken- you will need to see a doctor, get xrays and have them repair it.
Avatar m tn but now it is extremely swollen and purple at the palm part of my finger closest to the palm but not at the tup it is numb and cold. im worried what do i do?
Avatar f tn Hey guys. I'm male and I recently hooked up with a man of unknown status. It happened about 10 days ago. We had protected anal intercourse with him being insertive and me being receptive, however our sexual encounter didn't last long as I couldn't bare the pain because I was too tight due to the fact that I have been celibate for over two years. We agreed on foreplay so he took the condom off so I could give him a handjob.
Avatar n tn Snipping off about 3 is all you need. If I wrap the finger at night, no swelling or loss of mobility in the morning. Secondly, I started adding a couple of drop of Oil of Oregano all around the joint before bandaging. Immediately I felt relieve. The anti-inflammatory ingredients in it actually penetrate to the joints and ligaments and create a sort of "shut off" from the body attacking it.
Avatar m tn The injury can lead to nerve damage and/or a local swelling involving the nerve. The localized swelling could be due to tendinitis or it could be a nerve tumor. The nature of the swelling has to be found out. If the lump involves the nerve, it should be carefully removed surgically. You will also need physical therapy for a fully functional index finger.
Avatar m tn My ring finger got pulled looked swollen at first which it was now after a couple of weeks the swelling stopped and my finger looks broken but I can move it just not bend it down all the way or else it starts hurting It also has a bump .
