    I need some help you guys: so test 1 gave no result, but the pain I'm having in my wrist is so bad I can't even do the second test and can't fold my 2 hands anywhere near this far. I've been having this problem for over 4 years now and it comes and goes. Now it's at its worst, and it's starting to cause occasional numbness in my elbows. Please help if you know anything. Thanks :)

Pain comes and goes, but now it's worse than ever, so bad that I can't even do anything close to bending my hands that far because it hurts so much. Symptoms say CTS, tests say no. If you know anything about this, please help:)

    I did this yesterday after watching a short, obviously my hand/s went numb, had some pain in my right wrist, but i mentioned how i wear a splint to bed and it's completely stopped me from waking up in the middle of the night with my arm in severe pain. Except after doing that test, it happened for the first time in 6 months last night. Now my hand and wrist feel like I'm back to square one 😭 at least i know it's probably carpal tunnel.

    I did these two tests but both came out negative.
    Im 21 but my grip strength is incredibly weak, and there are some moments where I could not even open a bag of chips or twist a bottle cap open.
    Another thing i notice in my hands is that when i try to clench my fists, i can feel a tickly(not tingling) sensation in the center of the back of my palm, also I cannot forcefully clench a fist because of the tickly sensation.
    What could i be having?

    But the palm is spared in carpal tunnel syndrome.only the lateral 3 1/2 fingers are affected.

  • @Muffmiester
    @Muffmiester ปีที่แล้ว

    Correction thumb, index finger and lateral half of middle finger are supplied by the median nerve (not the ring finger). Also, this video demonstrates the 'reverse Phalen's test and not the Phalen's test which is done with the palms together as in prayer position. If either of these 3 tests reproduces symptoms of radiculopathy (numbness, tingling, pain) along the above mentioned 3 fingers then this could be carpal tunnel.

    • @Executable.exe.
      @Executable.exe. 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Correction: The median nerve does innervate half of the ring finger along with the thumb, index, and middle finger. The image he displays at 0:36 is correct
