Returning pains in right hand

Hi
please can an apt be made for me with Dr Blain due to severe returning pains in my right hand
extreme dull throbbing pain effecting whole of right thumb. As my hand became less

The left hand pain is still tolarable.

Severity score updated

Carpal tunnel symptoms have returned and are keeping me awake at night. I'm using wrist supports and taking paracetamol. Can I have an appointment please.

Operation both hands

I have again received benefit from injections in both wrists for around six months giving sleep continuity. However I am now constantly waking and turning in bed to drop and hand down vertically to relieve numbness and pain, alternating in each hand throughout the night.

Carpal tunnel appointment

Hi Dr Bland,

I have just completed the questionnaire and hope for an appointment to look at my carpal tunnel. I have previously been to the nerve clinic (cannot log in to old account) but following two pregnancies, my symptoms have worsened and I now have permanent numbness in the tips of some of my fingers and increased tingling/numbness during ordinary tasks. My previous name before marriage was Eleanor Hurley.

I hope to hear back.

Thank you

Hand/Finger pain returning

Good morning Dr Bland. I have been gradually suffering more with the pains in both hands. This is bad at night but it’s getting worse during the day. Trigger finger is there now daily and it’s making my finger really painful after snapping it back into position. Wrist pain is also there daily now. Please can you advise of the next course of action. Thanks in advance. Eddie

Carpal Tunnel slowly coming back.

Hello there, I had my injections done in both hands on the 13th December 2023 and my carpal tunnel disappeared overnight. However, I'm now starting to have symptoms again, especially when holding cutlery. Any advice as to what the next step is? Thank you in advance!
