What Does Pain From The Fingers To The Wrist Indicate?
Hello, I have hand pain. It s the top of my hand, starting at a specific point where my hand and wrist meet. It mainly hurts from my middle finger to my pinky finger. The specific point at my wrist is tender, and there is swelling that comes and goes. I had an x-ray taken, there was nothing to see, not even arthritis. I did have De Quervains tenosyvitis (pretty sure I spelled that wrong), had 2 cortisone shots that seemed to have mostly taken care of it. The pain now is in the same hand. Depending on how I move my hand can make it more painful.
