Thumb issues
Hi - recently having issues with my thumbs.
Mainly at night but also during work (on keyboard) my left thumb has a trigger thumb effect, as in it does not open smoothly.
My right thumb has same issue to lesser extent.
Is this related to my CTS would you think?
Many thanks
Left Arm and Hand
I have completed a new severity assessment this morning. For a couple of days now I have been struggling with severe pain, firstly in my left forearm and again in my left hand, mainly the lower quadrant, below the thumb. Pain is continuous, and, as previously, is completely untouched by co-codamol. Looking back on past episodes, I'm wondering if a steroid injection to the wrist would be helpful. However, I do need help please as a matter of urgency, my independence being threatened by my inability to use my hands normally. Many thanks for your consideration. Regards, David.

Excruciating
Hi Dr Bland
I am booked for surgery on my right hand on 23rd Jan.
However, since the booking my left hand is worse than the right. This morning whilst trying to get ready I had such awful pain in hand it had me in tears. Wore off after about 40.mins and has just been tingly all day.
Do you.think it is possible to have op on left hand first rather than the right hand?
Also do you have any tips to relieve the pain when it occurs?

I can to the clinic at the beginning of the year and had injections in my thumbs, they really help the pain in my thumbs, unfortunately the pain has started to return. Am I able to have the injections again? Thank you

Good morning
The pain and pins and needles in my hands now is becoming so bad, i struggle to sleep and when I do I;m often woken with pain and pins and needles in both hands.
I've had trigger fingers and thumbs, many steriod injections in my hands and my left thumb operated on. I've also had a steriod injection in my right wrist.
I really need some help as this is unbarable, as I type this its so painful.
Please help
Many thanks
