Have your knuckle or finger joints on your left hand swelled up? If so, then the nerves could be trapped in the swollen joints. If your doc has prescribed any anti-inflammatory meds that you are not taking, then taking these should help. Otherwise a visit to the doc for further checks or prescribed anti-inflam pills is needed.

Hi TJC,

Sorry your having a rough time just now. I think you might need to get it checked out really. I agree it could be your neck or if you have any swelling it might be that but its probably better to get it checked out. Hope it will soon stop hurting you and if nothing else you sound like you need better pain control. Please keep us posted and hang in there. luv Cris x

Hi TJC

I have similar problems and they all stem from cervical spondylosis, it causes all sorts of problems and pains, in shoulders, arms, numbness, loss of grip, you name it, it is a beast.
It can be diagnosed with a simple x-ray, worth asking your GP to send you for further tests.

I can sympathise with the pain, sometimes, nothing helps. I hope you feel more comfortable soon, it does have better days, honest.

Take care

I have to agree with teh others - you need to get yourself checked out to be on the safe side.

Most likey a trapped nerve (I lost the feeling in a few places over the years and hardly any of it is STILL numb )

Good luck

Thanks everyone

It started yesterday after I had carried a bottle of milk home in a carrier bag,when I came to put it down my hand was clawed & I had no feeling in my finger tips.

This morning when I woke up I couldn't feel my hands at all but the feeling came back...but still no feeling in my finger tips :?

I have a appointment with my ruemmy next week for nerve conduction tests.So im hoping to get some answers then.

Thanks again tjc.
