What Is The Cause Of Both Palms And Fingers Becoming Blood Red In Colour? Have Carpel Tunnel In Both Wrists And Will Soon Have A Surgery. Taking B-12 Injections Monthly.

Hello. I am a 58 year old female. Tonight, I got very upset with my two grandchildren over our dog. I was shocked when I looked at my hands because my palms and all my fingers were a beet red in color. I felt a little woozy, but no headache or bloodshot eyes. I do not have a history of high blood pressure. I do have carpel tunnel in both wrists and will have surgery in January. I am not taking any medication currently except for the b-12 injections I get once a month. I received my second injection, my second month, just last week. Any ideas? I did run cold water on my hands and they are still red now.

Hello

Use of machine can reduce your pain and swelling, you can ask your physiotherapist for therapy for CTS.

Use ice packs to reduce inflammation .
Physiotherapy with ultrasound and Tens will help you,
For early healing you can take Tab celin [vit C] and antioxidant with anti-inflammatory [Tab enzomac plus ].

Another possibility of allergic skin reaction.
