Answers:
kind of sounds like a dislocation- they don't have to look as obvious as you think they would!. With dislocations- you are also dealing with ligaments and bones - so get on that and go to a doctor!. Read about dislocations first- there is a ton of info on the net- so that you don't go to the doc not knowing anything- sometimes doctors seem like they slept through med school!. I don't know about CT so I can't speak on that, but my arm was dislocated and you couldn't tell from the outside, but I" could tell from the pain!. And water pressure is a strong force!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
You should probably see a doctor!. Non surgical treatment for carpal tunnel include taking Non-steroidial anti-inflamatory drugs (NSAIDS) such as Aleve for example and getting a wrist splint!.
You can try to see if either a cold pack or warm pack helps as well!. You can buy handy packs made of neoprene with felcro attachments at most pharmacies!. They have gel packs that you put in your freezer and then insert into the neoprene wrap to assist in healing!.
