Accepted Answer

: You should be examined to rule out carpal tunnel syndrome, especially if you have numbness of the thumb and index finger along with the pain. Or you can try a wrist brace (CVS or Rite Aid) at night for a week as a therapeutic trial. You are relatively young for this condition but it still can occur. A hand surgeon will be the best to make the diagnosis and fix the problem.

Question 7

i've haf this lower right hand  pain which has come and gone over a few days. i have an old ergo  keyboard. should i switch?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Yes, but if the pain does not disappear, the cause needs to be identified. It can be 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 available through your regular physician. If no abnormality is found, the problem may still be ergonomic.

Question 8

could right hand pain in situs inversus person indicate heart problem?

Accepted Answer

Situs Inversus: If you have situs inversus (your abdominal organs are opposite of  "normal" people - so your stomach/spleen are on the right side and your liver/gall bladder on the left ) but you have a totally anatomically normal heart (even if it is in your right chest)-I doubt your hand pain is related to your heart. If it continues to bother you, you should talk to your doctor.

Question 9

nerve in left hand thumb was cut off in jan. was still busy with rehab when lockdown happened. been overcompensating with right hand. pain in right hand just below thumb started yesterday. ice & splitting helps a bit. is there a hand brace i can buy?

Accepted Answer

Very common: pain at the base of the thumb is often a tendinitis from overuse and no history of trauma. A bowling type splint or wrist splint at walmart can help. You want to decrease the motion of the thumb. ibuprofen can help if you have no containdications. Topical DMSO is often used in sports and veterinary use. Needs to be diluted with 20% water (bottled not tap). Aspercreme, capsaicin creme can also help
