Good day PHM lalo na po sa ating resident doctor dito (doc V)
Last friday, gumamit ako ng grinders (1000 & 2000 Watts) at aksidente kong namartilyo ko ang left hand ko (pagitan ng thumb & pointer fingers).
come saturday afternoon, may naramdaman na akong pamamanhid sa aking hinliliit (pinkie?) at palasingsingan (ring). pinahilot ko kahapon mejo nagimprove naman condition. sabi ng suki kong hilot e wag ko daw hilain. dapat icompress/massage ko lang yung joint ng finger. tsaka hot water therapy. with regards to my daily activity, hot water therapy is not that available all the time.
konting google at eto ang nakita kong malapit na sagot: Carpal Tunnel Decompression. pero ang sabi ang thumb, pointer at middle fingers ang involved dito. yung involved sakin e yung ring at pinkie fingers. tsaka naigagalaw ko pa naman at hindi naman masakit..yun lang e disturbing lang.
any thoughts? experience? salamat
Re: Numbness/Tingling sensation on fingers
onga pala...left side ang involved.
at most of the time, majority of my sleeping position is curled on my left side aside from "nakadapa".
further reading led me to this: cubital tunnel syndrome which involves the problematic fingers mentioned.
Re: Numbness/Tingling sensation on fingers
Kumusta na bro,nawala na ba ang pamamanhid?
Re: Numbness/Tingling sensation on fingers
Afaik, ang carpal tunnel syndrome ay mula sa isang long term activity kung saan nako compress ang nerves sa may bandnag wrist. So kung one time activity lanb at walang nerve compression sa carpal tunnel, hindi siya carpal tunnel syndrome.
Try taking vitamin b complex like neurobion. Baka minor nerve irritation lang yan.
Hindi ako doktor heheh

Re: Numbness/Tingling sensation on fingers
ulnar tunnel ang binanggit ng doktor. kasi ring at little finger ang involved. sensory ang problema dahil nagagalaw ko pa naman daw.
i'm taking vitamin B for about 10 days na...humupa naman. pero kapag naiipit ang braso, nakapatong sa sharp edge ng mesa ng matagal, or nakapatong left arm ko sa window ng sasaakyan e ayun bumabalik yung pakiramdam. pero once na ibaba ko arm ko e nawawala naman ang sensation for the most part. kasi ngayon nasa fingertips na lang yung "numbness". sa tingin ko may "worn out" na nerve or whatever sa may bandang siko ko kasi sa nabanggit ko e yung siko ko yung halos nakapatong sa mga mesa. etc...."funny bone" ang jargon na ginagamit sa mga website na nasearch ko.
the doc advised me to use ergonomically designed tools...as long as hindi aabot ng 8 hrs a day ang gamit sa powertools okay lang. use of leather gloves when welding, etc. etc. the usual recommendation. e hindi naman ako on a daily basis na gumagamit ng power tools, welding, etc.
after the 30 day vitamin B take-up period e MRI na daw kung andun pa rin pakiramdam....hoping no needles, knives, blood, etc. na susunod after that scan. takot ako sa mga yun..hihihi

Re: Numbness/Tingling sensation on fingers
naisip ko nga sir rosy....senyales na ata ng "pagtanda". hehe.
Re: Numbness/Tingling sensation on fingers
hi miked,
sorry yung resident doctor mo, nag sabbatical leave..hehehe
i hope the hand is feeling better now and the numbness is gone.
nagtataka din ako after you hit the area in between the thumb and index fnger, the numbness developed at the 5th finger...
there are two nerves going to the hand and they come off from a parent nerve at the funny bone...the ulnar nerve goes to innervate the thumb, index and half of the middle finger while the radial nerve innervate the rest.
how old are you btw?
ok il try to visit the site more often.
do not patronize me btw as i have my own pains and numbness elsewhere in my body and i am NOT compliant with my own rehab threatments..haha
be safe

Re: Numbness/Tingling sensation on fingers
^hello doc v!
proud to say that i'm only 21 years old............one decade ago.:p
may numbness pa rin pero feeling good na kahit papano sir. sa dami siguro ng ginagawa (mapa-shopwork man or desk jobs). lalu na kung nangangalay sa trabaho, ugali ko kasi na iniistretch ng biglaan yung left arm ko. kung minsan tumutunog pa nga yung joints kapag iniistrectch ko bigla (parang sumusuntok ba patagilid).
get well soon too doc v! salamat ng marami.....
