Accepted Answer

Glomus tumor: Would suspect a glomus tumor. Is the pain intensified with cold exposure? Gladium MRI study would delineate the tumor, plain MRI not as useful for dx. Sometimes seen on t1, t2 phases of mri.Could possibly be a neuroma in continuity as well seek care with a hand surgeon.

Accepted Answer

Typically : Typically this is not one thing but a series of separate issues.

However you need a good general physical, bloodwork, checked for gout, diabetes, thyroid disease and general "stuff: first...Then you r physician can start to focus in on these things

for example a neuroma in your foot ( a nerve inflammation between the toes) a trigger finger or post traumatic arthritic joint in your finger, , a rotator cuff issue in your right shoulder

all these things can give you these symptoms,

are you falling part, no...  But welcome to 40 plus year of age

seriously though start with a regular chreck up and go from there.

Question 7

i have pain on my right middle finger, gets warm and numb and at night falls sleep i want to know if i really need to be concerned about this?

Accepted Answer

Numbness : Numbness to the driver's finger is a serious problem, lol. On a more serious note this could be an early sign of carpal tunnel syndrome or some other neurological problem. Try sleeping with a wrist split and see if the problem improves or goes away.

Question 8

hi doctor.  i started getting pain on my right middle finger's joint about six months ago. what do i need to do? is that a big concern?  thank you.

Accepted Answer

Joint pain : It’s difficult to answer this question without a full evaluation of your finger as there are many causes of joint pain.  If the pain continues to worsen, you should see your primary care physician.

Question 9

why does my middle finger hurt

Accepted Answer

Unknown: Maybe you use it too much. Have it examined by a local physician, possibly sprained or sports related.

Question 10

black discolored  right middle finger?

Accepted Answer

Nail: If you are talking about a nail, it may be due to trauma where blood gets under the nail. It gets better on its own. If it is pure black, it many be a melanoma which is a very dangerous cancer. See a dermatologist.
