Starting Sun nite, I started experiencing soreness in my left wrist and the pain gradually got worse. At first, I thought it was just a flareup of CTS (Carpal Tunnel Syndrome) since I already have that in my right hand (had 2 surgeries on that hand) so I wore a brace for the last day but it's not helping. In fact, the brace makes it hurt more. Now I don't think it's CTS- it's different than what I experienced with CTS..
As of now, I can't use my left hand much and I can't touch it much. Part of my wrist is swollen and a bit red. The veins are standing out more and I have tinglingness, burning and throbbing in hand all the time. The pain now shoots from wrist to tips of fingers AND to my elbows. Now typing with right hand only so its frustrating for me at work and in communicating (I use sign language in communicating).
I HATE going to drs or ER-ALWAYS get bad news such as having to do surgeries...
PLEASE SEND ME POSITIVE VIBES that my hand will stop hurting and go back to normal overnight so I don't have to go to ER...
