Hello,

It may be due to carpal tunnel syndrome or duputrens contracture or Reynauds phenomenon or infection or venous insufficiency etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is.

Get it done x ray of rt wrist with colour Doppler study may useful. Keep your limb on elevation. Crepe bandage may useful. If symptoms not improved please consult with your orthopedician, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
