Thumb pain.

Read on some link you were having pain at the base of the thumb from typing. This is carpal tunnel syndrome: Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the tissues surrounding the flexor tendons in the wrist swell and put pressure on the median nerve. Surgery is not always required, although there are good outpatient surgical solutions. My wife has had this off and on for years; Steroid injections three times so far. A corticosteroid injection will often provide relief, but symptoms may come back. See a good orthopedic surgeon so we can read episode 13.... Carter (Hope i am not over stepping)
