Hi Dr Samuel I have experience a bad pain on my hand for 2 days i couldn t sleep last night from the pain. This morning it was very difficult for me to even get dressed on my own and do my own hair I placed icy hot and the pain is more miled but i can still feel throbbing aches and pains here and there Do you possibly think it can be a bite? or can it be that I had been using an exercising muscle band and just pulled a muscle
Hello, I have studied your case with diligence. Possibility of bite is less. As per your symptoms I would like to keep differential diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis, carpal tunnel syn Chat Doctor. Rheumatoid arthritis may involve small joints and early morning stiffness in joints, do you have sucChatDoctorplain?
