What is causing shooting pains through my hands & wrists, i have a broken finger?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to say: Some fractures can refer pain upstream like you describe but you must also consider whether or not you have an additional injury. Best to have your hand surgeon assess the full hand and wrist.
