A member asked:

I woke up about 2weeks ago pain in-between thumb and index finger and thumb into wrist thought it was from bent while sleep now 2 weeks out it's worse?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hand surgeon: Two weeks of hand pain without known injury may be due to an inflammatory process,nerve impingement or overuse syndrome from work chores, housework or exercise.. A hand surgeon is best qualified to evaluate, advise and treat you even if surgery is not required. Appropriate tests will be done in order to make a diagnosis.
