Could this really be carpal tunnel syndrome? - in the morning my pinkie and ring finger are numb
I went to my doctor and told him that I had some problems lately in my hand. I told him my symptoms are pain in the wrist and numbness and tingling in the thumb, index, middle, and some rings. He said he thinks he is. What bothers me is that on my pinky ring / appear to be affected. I hurt my joints, especially my knuckle ring, sometimes I feel in my forearm / elbow. My left hand feels the effects of less degree.In my right hand, sometimes I feel like a weaker grip strength, sometimes I do not. And the trouble is Motrin does not seem to help. I have weakness in the hands or arms. I continue to look for things on the internet and I'm paranoid that it might be ALS, but my doctor told me it was not. I feel awake in the morning and my right hand is a bit rough around the joints, as in the wrists and elbows. In asking if anyone out there ever had these passes in and what they have done to fix it.

One of the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome is pain in the arm, where the nerves of the wrist for not pinched nerve in the tunnel. You can use the tunnel when the wrist is thin. It may cramp in his hand, if the nerve gets caught in the long term. I went with the surgery because of other problems is best Im with it, if not express the pain or numbness with some pressure on the underside of his arm midway between elbow and wrist downward and backward, their nerve to break the air to the house and eliminate pain. Always keep a splint on his sleep, work, or whatever your wrist is flexed for a long time.
It could be carpal tunnel syndrome, EMG nerve study is to be assured whether or not
Dj,

With hands and feet affected first, leading to difficulty walking or with their hands for activities of daily living such as dressing, washing and buttoning clothes. Electromyography - the electro-muscle studies is often performed to confirm the disease. If, after the EMG, the diagnosis is in doubt, a biopsy of muscle tissue can also be carried out.

His description of the time on their computers, and fell asleep in her arms suggests the possibility of pressure on the nerves (the hand of the mouse, the pressure in the arm and wrist and the weight on the arm during sleep, what nerve compression the problem). The attitude of its current position of the arms of sleep and could alleviate the problem.
