My right hand and index finger is now beginning to have the same problems. I wear wrist covers every night during sleeping that seem to help, but if I don t wear them my wrists & fingers really ache and wake me up.

Hi,

Generally speaking acxording to your symptoms maybe you are suffering from Carpal tunnel syndrome.

Patients describe initially numbness and afterwards pain to the 3 first hand fingers mainly during sleep, waking them up.

After five years and hand supporters it is tine to visit the doctor and to undergo a general examination than probably electrophysiological study (ENG) to exclude median nerve damage.

Only after visiting every thing would be clear bcs differential diagnosis is wide.

Hope this helped and feel free for any other information. Have a nice day
