Skin bleaching

Hi

Had steroid injections in both wrists back in March this year however I have, in the last few weeks noticed circles of skin bleaching. Would this be due to browning in the sun or a delayed effect of the steroids?

As an update, generally my CPS is much better with only a couple of uncomfortable days every few weeks, however I do still need to wear splints most nights to avoid night-time numbness.

Regards
Tony

CTS

Hi I filled in Questionare.

completed questionnaire

Wil 22479

Interrupted sleep

Real problems again with my right hand, not able to sleep without pain. I would really appreciate an appointment to see you to either get another injection or discuss future options. Hope to hear from you soon, many thanks. Wendy Bartlett

Symptom questionnaire

I have completed the symptom questionnaire.
Based on the results I am not sure my tingly hands are caused by carpal tunnel

Post operation

Thank you Dr Bland for getting my second op done so quickly (surgery on Saturday). Certainly a much better result. Once I start using my hand again fully, I am hoping that the numbness in my fingers, thumb and hand will gradually disappear.

Completed questionnaire

I have completed the questionnaire -224174

severity assessment completed again

as per appointment letter I have tried to complete diagnostic questionnaire but as I had an account from before as per your information you have requested we log in with those details which I did, it would then allow me to only complete a severity assessment and not a brand new diagnostic questionnaire.

Many thanks
