I have had carpal tunnel syndrome for at least 2 months started out just tingling in my fingers once in awhile. But for the last week it has been something else just this constant pain in my one arm from fingers to my arm pit. It hurts to make a fist I can’t even hold a pen to write. It’s kind of like when you hit your funny bone that pain you get well that’s how it feels for me constantly. I have tried cold, heat, OTC pain relievers pretty much everything it says to do with carpal tunnel syndrome I’ve tried it. Nothing helps. I feel so swelled all the time my arms and legs are always a blotchy red color kind of like sunburn when you touch it it turns white and slowly back to red. But I haven’t been out in the sun recently to have sunburn. I just don’t know what else to do I have an appt with my family dr today for something else so I am going to see what she says. I don’t see my baby dr till next week and can’t get into see orthopedic dr till next week also. I just can’t wait another week the pain is too much it wakes me up every few hours at night my blood pressure has been high. So if anyone has any suggestions I’d definitely appreciate anything.
