Avatar f tn I have Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, and that causes a lot of pain and numbness. Were you in any accidents lately? Any trauma to the neck?
Avatar n tn My neck has no pain at all, it is only in my last two fingers on my right hand. I have had an EMG done and that didn't really show the Dr. much I guess. He had me get an MRI of my brain done to rule out MS. The nubers collected by the EMG could not tell the Dr. what really was causing my pain. It has gotten worse as time goes on. The Dr. has also rule out capular tunnel as a cause of this pain. Any ideas as to what may be causing this?
Avatar m tn For over twelve months I have been aware that these symptoms have been getting worse and now I am in a real mess with night and early morning moderate pain in my right hand. I also suffer from burning, tingling, numbness in my three middle fingers and the thumb, never the little finger! This obviously sounds like Carpel Tunnel but my GP wants me to do a CT scan of my neck in the belief it may be the C2/5 discs causing the problem.
Avatar n tn Aside from pressure on a nerve, there are many possible causes of numbness in the face or leg such as nerve injury, medication side effect, pressure on peripheral nerves from enlarged blood vessels, tumors, scar tissue, or infection, lack of blood supply to an area and medical conditions such as diabetes, migraines, transient ischemic attack (TIA), stroke, underactive thyroid, vitamin deficiency and abnormal levels of calcium, potassium, or sodium in your body.

Avatar f tn yes, test were to say that i have carpal tunnel, the pain in my neck to right hand was cause by an injection in neck the dr. hit a nerve i cannot hardly use my hand it stays cold and tiggles all the time.
Avatar f tn Neck and back, yes. Anxious people have a hard time relaxing and so the muscles can get very tight. Numbness and tingling, unlikely. But know that just because you have an anxiety problem doesn't mean you don't get all the other things everyone else gets. What you describe sounds like pinched nerves possibly from the neck, but it could be a host of things. We're not professional docs here and can't diagnose you and you can't diagnose yourself.
Avatar n tn my last two fingers on my right hand and the side of my palm are numb. What causes this.
Avatar m tn You have been engaged in repetitive hand and wrist movements, which can trigger the onset. The numbness, tingling and pain over palms, pain can extend to the elbow and interfere with finger movement with weakness of grip. Your physician should check for diabetes, hypothyroidism, as these may be associated. Apart from clinical examination, electromyography and nerve conduction test may be done.
Avatar f tn Most likely, your arm numbness symptoms may be due to nerve irritation in the cervical (neck) spine or arm because of injury where contact between the edges of the vertebrae can cause nerve pain and subsequently arm numbness. In few people, this pain may be referred and perceived as occurring in the back of head, shoulders, arms or chest, rather than just the neck. Other symptoms may include vertigo, nausea (dizziness) and stiffness can be intermittent.
Avatar n tn re not having THUMB numbness as well (test the middle of the thumb on the palm side and compare to the other by light touch). If they feel the same, it is your neck. If you notice some numbness there as well, it MAY be carpal tunnel. But the neck is the more likely culprit. Anti-inflammatories won't cure this because it is this MECHANICAL irritation of the nerve (not chemical by inflammation) that occurs with loss of disc height.
Avatar m tn Can you tell us more about your symptom's? With a M.R.I. that does have findings consistent with arm and hand pain, numbness, and or tingling, you could be a candidate for surgery. I believe your arm pain is comming from the C6/C7 disc causing the nerve root of C7 to pinched. If your left arm has problem it could the C5/C6 level. But you should be seeing a surgeon for this.
Avatar f tn I experience my first three fingers going numb or tingly when I sleep at times, the chiro says it is Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS), nothing serious, but very annoying. It is nerves being impinged in the scapular region, this in turn causes the numbness and tingling, adjustments, as I said, do help.
Avatar n tn Often arm and hand pain, numbness, tingling, paralysis, could be a result from a damaged or pinched nerve in the neck. You might say how can that be? Nerves that come from the spinal cord come out from the neck and go down your arm and hand. Your neck might be out of alignment and pinching your nerve. Most people don't realize that when there's damage to nerves it can cause all sorts of physical problems. Take me I actually have nerve issues that is creating stomach problems for me.
