    Going to be away from here for a bit as I’m pretty sure I have nerve issues that started yesterday - currently can’t grip anything, make a tight fist and both inner arms are painful with even just the slightest touch. Am hoping to wait til easter weekend is over to go to the hospital but the likelihood of that happening isn’t high as voltaren emugel isn’t helping at all

    Thanks all, more than likely I’ll be going to Emergency tomorrow as I tried ibuprofen with similar results. So far the most effective thing has been submerging my hand/arm into warm water and lying my arm on a warm hot water bottle

    Prayers that the doctor can find out what’s going on and you can get some relief.

    Keeping you in my thoughts. I wonder if it is carpal tunnel? Hoping you get answers soon.

    Thinking of you as well - there's never a good time to be injured but i hope it's overuse related as well or something relatively simple to treat with a good prognosis

    @mcurtt & @bellbird - highly doubt its carpal tunnel as it in my case hasn’t related to overuse and I would think if it was it would affect my right hand more being my dominant one but in my case it’s both hands with the left one being worse
