Hi,

Have seen my doctor about my right hand which was operated on by we think Mr Smith but I am not sure about this.

I was told that it could be Keloids, it seems that I have three on the scar. it is getting worse and is very painful.

Kind regards,

Angie

Post Op problem

I have seen a nurse today as I thought I might have another infection in the operation site. The nurse said she thinks the pain is caused by the internal stiches pulling too tight & has made an appointment for me to see my GP. She also told me to let you know via this forum that I am still having problems & pain & that I will probably be sent for an xray.

Steroid inj

Having read the updated version of treatment, my left hand is giving problems, about 18m after the first inj. can I still arrange this direct through you? Both hands were tested last Oct/Nov.

Steriod Injection

Dear Dr Bland and Emma, it is now two weeks since I had a steroid injection in my right hand. It took nearly one week before I could feel any improvement and by day ten things were really looking better. It is so nice to have a full night's sleep without waking up in pain during the night or early morning. I wear my splint during the night which is a great help and on and off during the day, especially if I am ironing. I am just a little anxious that this won't last. How long do the injections last or does it depend on the severity of CT?

My Left Hand...

Dear Dr Bland,

I had a third steroid injection in my left wrist last July, which has been very successful until a few weeks ago. I am sorry to report that I am once again suffering from pins and needles if I hold a phone, steering wheel etc., and even though I wear my splints at night I am woken several times during the night with pins and needles. I would be grateful for an appointment to see you.

Thanks

CTS - Annual Update - May 2014

Dear Dr. Bland With reference to my first appointment on 1st March 2012 and my updates of 25.9.12 and 24.3.13 - another year has passed and I am still continuing to wear my splints nightly (with a few exceptions). Things remain almost the same as in my communication to you of 24.3.13, with my experiencing a tingling/numbness in my left hand sometimes, more recently it has been the thumbs on both hands. I am most happy to continue wearing the splints and they comfort my aching wrists - I would now miss them and they keep me warm on winter nights !! Regards Jeannie

elbow supports

Hi Dr bland

Can you tell me if there any supports I can have for my elbows until I go for surgery. I am in agony and need something especially for night time

Regards

Symptons have returned ;-(

Hi Dr Bland
Had both my wrists injected about November 2013. Its been fantastic up till a few weeks ago when my symptoms started to come back. My right hand is causing me alot of pain now & waking me up every night this week. My left hand although slight numbness occasionally seems (touch wood) ok at the moment.
Can I come see you to discuss my options again please?
Thanks
