pins & needles
by llanbaddon, Jul 27, 2008 01:36PM
Ive had pain in my 1st 2 nuckles + the outer side of my right arm for 4 months + Ive had pins & needles in my 1st 2 fingers going up through my hand & into the outer side of my right arm for 11 weeks.
My 1st finger feels as if it has been hit with a hammer
I have seen the Doctor 4 times I have seen A Phisiotherapist + an Ostiopath 3 times each
The pain is much better than it was 2-3 months ago. the pins & needles are worst when I,m in a stress situation
+ when I lie on my left side
I,m hoping you can help me

The pins and needle symptoms are characteristic of neuropathic type of pain, which may be due to a primary nerve problem from an external compression or from nutritional deficiencies (such as the B vitamins). Along with your therapy, it is also important to receive treatment for neuropathic type of pain, through drugs such as Lyrica or Gabapentin.
I suggest you ask your doctor about these drugs, before taking them, and I believe this would greatly help in minimizing or completely eliminating your present symptoms.
Regards and God bless.
