What Causes Recurring Pain In Fingers And Wrist?
Question: I have a coming and going pain in my fingers and wrists since last 20 days. This happened after I stretched my hands a lot while playing with my child. From next day onwards I had pain in my wrist and it was acute. I applied volini and with that it disappeared. Next day onwards it has been appearing in one finger, disappearing and next day develops elsewhere in the hand. Local doctor said its a muscle spasm and gave a medicine. With tht pain intensity reduced but it's still continuing. Uric acid level, thyroid and calcium are in normal range. Calcium is 8.9 . If I pick something heavy or my child pain comes back. Pain normally occurs in between the two joints of the finger. Please give me a solution to this problem. I am very much worried. My age is 31 and I am a female.
