Hi Was seen a year ago, when mild carpal tunnel was diagnosed after wearing a splint on rhand at night for a while the symptoms disappeared, unfortunately they have now reappeared in both hands - tingling, pins and needles.in the middle fingers. My Raynaud's is also not good at the moment. Wondered if I could be booked in to have steroid injections?
symptoms getting worse
hi Dr. Blande
Numbness returns after injections
I had injections in both wrists about 3 months ago and now the numbness has returned. As I have been told that this condition can permanently damage the nerves, do I need to go to my GP again to arrange a visit to the Canterbury clinic to see Dr. Bland?
pre-op 17/11
Owing to another patient cancelling,pre-op for saturday became pre-op and surgery.Quite a surprise!!!! All seemed to go well,my thanks to Dr.Rine and colleagues and to yourself.Will let you know any developments.K
Injection follow up
Nearly 2 weeks post injections, the right hand feels normal, the left has occassional slight pins and needle in thumb and finger tips, but a vast improvement on before. I did have a slight bruise on the left wrist for a week so maybe it will need a bit longer to improve.

Hi . Had Carpel tunnel steroid injections on 30/07/12. Worked only for a couple of months. Symptoms seem worse now than before. Wearing wrist splints in bed but still keeping me awake. Would like the possibility of surgery.thanks Debbie

Symptoms
Hello me again, sorry for yet another question!
I mention in my previous posts that the numbness is worse in my right hand, thumb side ring finger tip and middle fingertip, I have noticed this evening that my ring finger thumb side also feels numbish, is this yet another normality?
Thank you again for your help x
1 week on from my injection
The day of the injection showed a vast improvement, no problems driving home. Was able to sleep for the first time in 6 months on my (L) hand side without my (R) side going numb. Wrist was a bit sore for a few days but no muscle pains. Able to pick things up at work with that arm. Still pains in (R) arm, perhaps more noticeable now the (L) one is better. On Day 4-5 had pain in (L) armpit and in shoulder which seems to have settled.
