A member asked:
The outer side of my right hand hurts.although i have not hit/slammed my hand on anything, what might be the problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Side...: we say thumb side or pinky side. thumb side is carpal tunnel. pinky side is funny bone or a neck problem. both could be from neck or underarm area for a nerve pinch, but carpal tunnel is really really common. all of us here at healthtap have carpal tunnel.
