My hands are killing me!!!
I know my doctor said with the weather and all the swelling it's normal, but I can't believe how much this is bothering me!
Over the weekend my hands have gotten worse. They are so achey and swollen. It hurts to open doors here at work, my hands go numb right away, even sitting here typing. On Saturday morning I woke up at 5:00am and cried for an hour because I couldn't go back to sleep because my shoulders, arms and hands hurt. I couldn't get comfortable without them going numb or hurting. I'm having a hard time bending my fingers because it hurts. It doesn't matter what I'm doing either. Blow drying my hair, I have to stop a bunch of times because my hands hurt and go numb. It's horrible!
It's just getting worse!  Sorry... I just needed to vent!

Re: My hands are killing me!!!
You have carpal tunnel. You need to get hand braces to wear all day and night and you will feel some relief. You should limit your typing, if possible as well.
This may go away after the baby comes, but you need to relax your wrists for a bit right now.

Re: My hands are killing me!!!
don't be sorry. Vent away. I know how you feel because I have arthritis and there are days that I can't get anything done.

I have the carpeul tunnel and it is so painful. My Dr. said you can try and wear the brace, but it may not be too effective.

Re: My hands are killing me!!!
I had carpel tunnel in both hands and had 3 surgies. The braces help..but will not take away all of the pain, but it will help you sleep I bet.

Vent away! I do it every morning to my Mom and DH. I wake up in the middle of the night and can't move my fingers. So I know what you are going through
