What Causes Constant Pain In The Wrist?

I have been experiencing pain in my wrist, the right side of my ring finger and also my little finger for quite a while now, I went to the doctors and was referred to a Consultant who carried out a nerve test and an MRI scan. Apprently nothibg untoward showed up but I am still experiencing this pain, sometimes at night it wakes me up and keeps me away, its like a stabbing pain in my fingers and in my wrist its like an irritation especially if I am using my mouse at work as it touches the desk. Also for the last 2 weeks I have also been experiencing sharp pains in my forefinger around my nail bed. I don t know what to do especially as the consultant said that it just showed normal wear and tear.

Hello,

Looking at your details it looks that you may be suffering from affection of ulnar nerve .Your attending doctor is best judge to diagnose it. I shall advise following to have relief:
- Discuss with your doctor about role of pregabalin in your case
- There can be inflammation of nerve in your case. In that case you may have relief with use of steroid medicines.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mukesh Tiwari, Orthopedic Surgeon
