how can i relieve hand pain?

Yes .. YOU can!!!: Think flesh=muscles/tissue and not bone/ligament/disc/nerves with chronic pain! cts can be self cured with a self-care with a wellness program of vits, magnesium glycinate, sleep hygiene, exercise, self massage, chiropractor, yoga, heat, epsom tub soaking, and stretching.  In my practice, I use acupuncture and myofascial tissue release with trigger points w lidocaine.

Question 2

hand pain over a month after an iv?

Accepted Answer

Poss. nerve injury: I see a few patients a month with persistent pain after IV placement.  This can be due to a hematoma formation or nerve injury.  Recommended treatment is warm compress for the hematoma and contrast compress (hot and cold) for nerve injury.  Prescription topical creams  and therapy may be helpful.  Symptoms usually resolve spontaneously, but tis can take u to a year.  See a hand surgeon for an eval.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Best start: The best start would be with a primary care physician or a rheumatologist. The cause needs to be identified. It is usually tendon/joint problems (arthritis, tendinitis, etc.) or nerve disease (carpal tunnel syndrome, etc.). Many of these conditions are treatable and the tests (blood work, x-rays, nerve conduction tests) are simple and helpful.
