What Could Be The Cause Of Pain In Wrist And Pinky Finger?

It hurts in my hand when I place pressure on it, like leaning on something with my hand. The pain is sharp and it does not consistently hurt but it will hurt if I move it in the wrong way. The pain is not in the wrist but just above it below the pinky finger

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

As a first line management you can take analgesics like Paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief. If symptoms persists better to consult an orthopaedician and get evaluated. In that case an MRI scan is required for further assessment.

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