Question:

Is there a certain type of doctor I would have to see, if I am having pain in my hand and fingers?

If yes, what type of doctor. Would I have to see a specialist doctor? I am just asking this question, because I am curious to know the answer.


Answers:

As a healthcare provider I can tell you to start with your family provider. My suspision is carpal tunnel but your provider can order a test called an EMG (a nerve conduction test) to verify the diagnosis. The next referral depends on how you want to handle it. Usually a surgeon is the next step with this diagnosis.
