Hand pain????

Hi my hand like my palm and wrist area has been hurting really bad its like Carpotunnel. I tried acupuncture and it didnt help. i dont want to have surgery anyone know any tips or anything i can do that will help? i put on a rubber band on my wrist and its been helping a little anyone have any like homemade remedies or anything that will help? i dont want to take medication like arthritus and stuff. Because it hurts everyday. thanks.

when u said use the wax should it be cold when i dip my hand in it? wont i get burned or something? thanks for the great tip ill try it !

Buy a couple boxes of Paraffin Wax, melt it in a crock pot or in a sauce pan over low heat. Then dip your hand in it and let it harden on your hand. Remove the cold wax from your hand, put it back in the pot and dip your hand again. Repeat as needed. My grandma used to do that all the time, and it really helped with the pain. Hope this helps you.

It will be hot, but you shouldn't get burned. Thanks for the best answer. Good Luck and hope it works for you like it did my grandma. Report It

I have this problem and wear a brace to stabalize my thumb as there is very little cartlidge left in the joint. It is very painful all the time but flares up worse when the weather is moist and cold or I have been doing a lot of writing. I also choose not to take medication and just put up with it and use meditation to ease the discomfort.

You do not always need surgery for carpel tunnel- it really depends on the severity. Number one, you need to stop using the hand to type/play video games, etc. for several days. Talk to a pharmacist about a proper splint to wear for your wrist. Wearing the wrist splint at night while you sleep will help alot. You can use some minor over the counter analgesics for pain. But the main thing is to stop the offending activity that is causing the swelling around the nerves and causing the pain. If stopping the computer, etc for a week and wearing the splint does not help, I would see a family doctor about it.

-- you should do some reading about carpel tunnel and its causes. because it involves nerves in your wrist and hand, some home remedies such as hot wax will not do anything, because it cannot reach into the nerves. That is more an arthritis remedy, and one that should be taken with extreme caution, because wax can be flammable.

You should be taking PC-95, MSM, FP-63 and Epithelial Tissue Support. They WILL solve your problem. You can find these products on ROEX.com. They are not cheap but why don't you find out how much surgery would cost and then see what is better. Taking these products will fix the problem for good it's not a temporary fix.

Go to a Durable Medical Equipment or Orthopedic shop in your area and explain the situation to them, maybe they will suggest what type of brace or stabilizer you should try and use that for a while, without medical intervention you are going to have to improvise. Good Luck!
