Terrible pain in both wrists?!
Question: Terrible pain in both wrists!?
HI, I'm having a bit of a problem!. [this will be scatter brained, i'm sorry]
I get this re-occuring pain in both of my wrists, and can't for the life of me figure out why!. I know that lifting heavy objects, huge changes in weather and playing ANY of my musical instruments for more than a minute or two trigger it in my right wrist automatically!. The left wrist just hurts occasionally!. I've played violin for 13 years, but had to stop recently because the pain is so intense!.
Basically, if you were to push down in the center of my wrist directly between the bone that sticks out,[i think its the ulnar styloid] and the other side, it feels like it has to pop or crack very badly!. I try to jerk it around, i shake my hands out a lot, and try to bend it back so that it does "pop" or "crack" back into place, but it dosn't!. The pain is so severe that i can't move my hand up or down, or apply any weight to it!. I can't lift myself up out of the bathtub, work the buttons on a shirt, or undo the clasp on my bra!. [tmi maybe, i know]!. i have okay left-to-right movement in it however!. The problem is today, i didn't do anything to aggrivate it, it just appeared for no reason!
Occasional i will also get shooting, burning or pins-and needles pain that go in almost a line directly up the palm of my hand and down maybe 3 inches past my wrist line!.
I also have problems with the muscle between my first finger and thumb!. It will cramp up and hurt intensly, I can't grip anything, or even move my hands, This started while playing violin about 3 years ago !. I'd have to drop the bow and shake my hand/wrist until it loosened up again!.
I've looked up carpal tunnel online but im not sure if it fits exactly!. I do not have health insurance, a primary doctor or the means to pay out of pocket at the moment for a visit, so if anyone could give me any insight i would love it so much
here's a picture that kind of goes along with what i'm talking about
