While I was dealing with a brain aneurysm, my carpal tunnel got a bit out of control. My middle fingers on my left hand are numb and on fire. I've been stretching, icing, and bracing, to no avail.
I'm seeing a good hand ortho specialist, and have to get a nerve test, etc.
I'm just hoping to hear experiences here. I hope I can go without surgery. Maybe shots will help.
Have any of you fine folks gotten relief with shots?
Thanks very much!

(10,888 posts)This condition has been somewhat transient. Most times, I'll start to feel it, and after a week or two, it will just go away. This is the first symptoms have lasted four months, and my fingers have felt so numb. I really hope something will help.
Your first hand response is much appreciated.
