Common Questions and Answers about Knuckle pain while sleeping

finger

Avatar m tn Hi, Thanks for query, You have not mentioned your age, if you are elderly there is chances of having inflammation of the bone in the nerve route causing pain in the fingers. There is possibility of some pressure on brachial plexus while sleeping pressure giving rise to nerve route pain. Hope this answers your query.
Avatar f tn Then came back but was also in my back , ankles, one knuckle , feet,neck , and wrists. This continued through age 23. I ignored the pain as I. Thought. Maybe I needed a. Different mattress. Or was sleeping wrong . At one point the pain in my neck was so bad I was convinced I had meningitis . I've had "flare ups" over the years , but it always goes away. , so I didn't see a dr. But , like now my muscles are so sore )three. Days now). That it hurts to walk.
Avatar f tn I got angry and hit something about 2 hours ago, and my knuckle by my ring finger has a 3/4 in. gash in it and it hurts so bad when I have to move it open and close motion hurts the worst. Also, half way up my arm it hurts, and is swollen a little above my wrist. The whole area in general is swelling now, what should I do? It is 35 miles to the nearest ER, and I have two small children sleeping now. I dont know what to do about it.
Avatar n tn I posted prior about pain in my knuckle starting in my left index finger knuckle. Since then, in early January of this year it transferred to the opposite knuckle. I went in to get tests done and they came back negative for RA, OA, and gout. Everything looked good on the x-rays and there was no cartilage worn down on the joints. Since I got it tested, the pain has continued to transfer to surrounding knuckles but not to the same pain level as the original left index finger knuckle.
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 m tn Also, I get this knuckle sound in my neck, growing up since few months, like the knuckle sound in the fingers. So whenever I suddenly change my neck or when i ride my motorbike and there is a sudden hump in the road then I get this knuckle sound in my neck. So I wonder could that be a cause also of my giddiness in lectures. Its almost certain that whenever I attend a lecture in a well/hall I would certainly get this giddiness. Should I see a neurologist? Many thanks in advance!
Avatar m tn 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. Having been a climber for a long time I've experienced lots of tendon injuries in my hands so I figured it would just go away with rest but this bugger is persistent and as bad today as six weeks ago.
Avatar f tn So i drilled a hole sideways through my pointer finger knuckle two nights ago the drill bit went over an inch and a half into my hand through the outermost knuckle to slightly into the second knuckle b4 i could stop the drillpress, in excruciating pain what can i do at home as i have no maw money...
Avatar n tn About a month and a half ago I went to Vietnam to train for my martial arts. and I was punching the floor and hurt my middle finger's knuckle. It started to swell and I felt pain on my knuckle everytime I would barely touch it. And I've been rubbing on some asian remedy on it and it's helped a little bit with the pain, but it's still swollen pink and even though it doesn't hurt when you touch it anymore, throwing a punch at a bag or another person hurts my knuckle still.
Avatar f tn It started in the base knuckle near my palm. 2 weeks ago the pain gradually started to move up my finger. It starts to hurt during everyday activities like brushing my hair, taking off caps to bottles/jars, and mostly anything that requires force used by the fingers. The pain also occurs randomly, mostly in the evening and at night.
Avatar n tn Is it possible you injured it in any other way? Hit it on something and don't recall it? It doesn't seem like this would cause injury to only one finger, really. Is the finger or the knuckle swollen at all? If it is, or the pain gets worse, don't wait a month and get it checked now.
467797 tn?1216211257 I have tried splinting for a short while and it seemed to make the pain worse. But I do wear a reverse wrist splint at night to prevent my fingers from curling while sleeping and the seems to help. Btw, I an unable to take Nsaids due to having Ulcerative colitis.
Avatar m tn You may have severely bruised the bone, or fractured it by the force that went on the hand as you landed. An xray of the hand would be able to show whether you have caused damage to the bone. In the meantime strap the middle finger to the two either side to immobilise it. You can apply a lot of natural yogurt to that part and lightly bandage it. This helps by drawing out the inflammation. Keep your weight off that hand too until it is fully healed.
Avatar m tn when i grip anything with my right hand, like scissors or any hand tool, and squeeze, i get a sharp pain in my middle knuckle, i noticed it about a year ago, it was not bad at all at first, but over the last week its become a constant. all other knuckles on both hands are fantastic otherwise,im dont recall any injury or reason why this is happening, any ideas? thank you.
Avatar f tn Three weeks ago I noticed my left pinky was extremely sensitive and what felt like extreme nerve pain when bumping inside the knuckle area. I also noticed that from the knuckle up it sometimes felt asleep when I touched it and also felt like it was burning occasionally (not to the touch but internally) to where I had to put it in ice.
Avatar f tn My knuckle and fingertip swelled up, turned red, and was warm about 2.5 wks ago, just sore on the inner knuckle, could not find any insect bites, no injury, no hang nail. Swelling went down after several days, then it came back with a vengence with severe swelling and lots of pain but this time only in the fingertip. The pressure was so intense that I tried to drain it, I know I shouldn't have. Nothing would come out.
488675 tn?1208989954 On the last board-break i think i accidentally tilted my right fist a little to the left before impact, I broke the board, but had a lot more pain then usual. i pressed my knuckle and it felt like a bruise. I thought it would go away so i went to sleep. The next day the pain was less but when i pressed on my knuckle i felt 2 bumps, normally i just feel 1 big knuckle. Also when i moved the finger of that knuckle i felt the tendon rub against something.
Avatar n tn For over 1 year now I have had excessive stomach bloating, constipation, gas, lower back pain and almost clear urine. The dr.'s don't have any answers. A CT was just done with contrast and iodine iv, no significant results. A small stone was found near my kidney, but they don't seem to think much of it. I am doubled over in pain, have not had a bowel movement without laxative in months and even with the laxative only a small amount comes out. I am 49 years old and female.
Avatar m tn i was rough housing and we got a little serious i punch him in the side of his head and my knuckle was throbbing with pain the second i landed the punch and it got swollen it hurts when i try to clench my hand and it happened yesterday i p ut ice on it but not working This discussion is related to <a href="/posts/Undiagnosed-Symptoms/possible-broken-knuckle/show/203406">possible broken knuckle</a>.
Avatar m tn It has now been 2 months, i have full range of motion without any pain, however when I apply pressure to the knuckle, it hurts a good amount. Also, in the top right corner of the knuckle it almost feels like there is a hole and i can move what feels like a piece of bone around without pain really.
Avatar f tn s most likely round ligament pain. I had it really bad w my last baby. I would almost come to tears from the pain when I rolled out of bed, moved suddenly, sneezed (that was the worst). Unfortunately it's very normal when prego & won't go away until U give birth. Look it up online so it's easier to visualize where the ligaments are. Think of the ligament as a rubber band any sudden movement it will pull & snap back and hurt U.
1135892 tn?1260565465 Other health issues include high blood pressure, leg (hamstring/periformis), and heel pain. Spirits generally good. I experience fatigue seemingly early in evening. I am at a loss for next step(s) and I am open to suggestions.
Avatar n tn while working in the basement at work, I reached into a box and hit my hand pretty hard right on the knuckle of my right hand, middle finder. This happened in November. I figured the bruise and soreness would heal. It is Decmeber 23, and it occasionary will re-bruise and become painful again. I find no particular reason why it just all of sudden bruiese again and hurts. (I did not punch anything, but that is what the knuckle at the base of the figner on my looks hand implies.
