default
Posted on Tue, 14 Jun 2016
Question: My hand feels like it's vibrating and the pain shoots up my arm up to my elbow. When I go to sleep I will wake up constantly because my hand is tingling. I work with a pressure washer most of the day, it vibrates my hand and I have to keep my hand in a fist form for most of the day I was wondering if this could be the cause

Brief Answer:
You may be having cervical spondylitis

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case. Your symptoms are mostly due to cervical spondylitis. In this there is nerve compression in neck and that causes tingling and vibration in whole hand. I have following suggestions for you.
1. Avoid using very high pillow or keeping neck in same position for long time .
2.Avoid that pressure pump for two weeks.
3.You should start physiotherapy like intermittent cervical traction and neck muscle strengthening exercises.
4.Tablet Pregabalin M should be taken at night time.
Cervical spondylitis is a chronic disease and takes time to recover.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. let me know if there is any other followup questions. thanks
