Suggest remedy for twitching and pain in wrist
Patient: Severe twitching and pain at the back of the wrist. This has been going on for more than a year. I have a operation on my elbow 3weeks ago for numbness in the last 2 fingers. The last finger is still numb and the upper arm 2 inches at the back of the elbow is still painful for more than 2 years. Please do whatever you can. Thank you. Doctor: Hi there.It appears your radial nerve may be compressed or getting irritated in the region of your elbow surgery. You can apply hot water bottle to the painful area around the elbow. Take pain killer and muscle relaxant like Diclofenac with Thiocolchicoside for relief from pain and muscle spasm. Consult your Doctor and he may advise you some arm exercises and other modes of treatment if you do not find relief in this.
