Can you guess by my symptoms what is wrong with me?!


Question: Can you guess by my symptoms what is wrong with me!?
I have always had back problems, but I pretty much have been dealing with it!.!.!.never seen a doctor about it!. Anyway, here they are!.!.
-back pain
-swollen hands when doing something that requires a little pressure!.
-I have to stop when hands get swollen because it is painfull!.
-it looks like the veins in my arms swell when doing excessive work!.
-I have a burning sensation in my arms!.

These symptoms come and go depending on work that I do!.
I recently went to a specialist and he is waiting on blood work!. He didn't want to diagnose me, then and there without the results!. I did tell him that I think I have arthritis, but he did hesitate!.
He prescribed Celebrex and it helped with my back pain, but my hands are still the same!.
Any ideas!? I'm just curios if anyone has these same symptoms and could tell me what it is!.

My advice on Chiropractors is let a MD refer you if he feels it will help!. Good ones are great but bad ones can hurt you!. One disabled me!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

go see a chiropracter for your back and go to a doctor for the others i dont know what you got thoughWww@Answer-Health@Com

rheumatoid arthritis, carpal tunnel, or lupus possibly!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Go see a chiropractor immediately!! They specialize in real treatment for these types of symptoms!. Medical professionals can only give you drugs which treat symptoms not the cause!. I had similar problems which cleared immediately after having my upper back adjusted!. Something so simple and I suffered way to long, wish I'd gone sooner!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

ok, i believe you have a pinched nerve

which causes burning sensations etc


go see a neurologistWww@Answer-Health@Com

my friend has the exact same thing as u
its a type of arthritis
but the best thing to do is to use , hand creams cause that is what my friend does
and where gloves when ur working it helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

maybe you might have some clogged arteries in your arms that could be causing the swellingWww@Answer-Health@Com

First of don't see the chiropractor, if it is arthritis or rehumatoid arthritis or other bone problems they are not the solution and they can cause more harm then good!.

It definetly sounds like it may be arthritis!. The part that I'm curious about is the swelling of the veins, generally speaking I've never heard of that with arthritis before!. I'd just wait for the test results to come back, and hopefully it is nothing too serious!.

Hope your results are well!Www@Answer-Health@Com

No do not see a chiropractor!. If anything go to a Physical therapist!. A chiropractor will get rid of your pain, but only temporarily!. A PT will be able to tell you what you are doing to cause the pain and help you to stop the pain from reoccurring!. Its hard to diagnose things over the internet especially back pain because it can be caused by a million different things!. Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

What Megan said!!! Physical Therapy does more than treat the pain!. It goes to the root of the problem, usually something we are doing to keep ourselves out of alignment!. This is not a slam on chiropractors!. They can manipulate the spine and stop the pain, but until we change the thing we are doing that caused the problems in the first place they will come back!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
