A member asked:
2 dr. say carpel tunnel, 2 say no way don't have single symptom of that. what kind of dr do i need to see to find root of pain in my whole arm.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neuro / NCV: Carpal tunnel syndrome can cause significant pain anywhere from the tips of fingers up to the neck. However, proving it is the source of pain can be a bit tricky. A neurologist is the person you want to see. A nerve conduction velocity study can confirm the diagnosis.
