    I went to a doctor for my left hand tingling and numbness and she asked me to do a CT scan and an MRI that both were clear. She told me that I might have a mini stroke. I was so scared that I couldn’t sleep anymore. I found your video and now I understand my syndrome better as my neck hurts too when I experience numbness on my fingers. Thank you doctor.

    i had shoulder surgery and woke up up with tingling in the had,,i was sent for carel tunnel surgery that made no difference. doctor told me we can do more surgery on a different place. never mentioned PT or a brace. shoulder surgeon said it has nothing to do with shoulder surgery. this hs been going on for 4 years and i drop so many things because i do not feel what i am holding. no test were done to decide wear the nerve was being pressed. you r information was very enlightening much more than i ever heard before. i am 78 years old nd this is my biggest problem. blessing denise

      They are too quick to jump into surgery , carpel tunnel surgery has a risk of doing more damage , my friend was a electronic technician and after surgery had to give up his career in this field. He couldn't grip things any more

      Which hand? Surgery hand or non surgery hand? If it’s surgical side then it could be direct damage to the ulnar nerve during surgery or during the nerve block that you most likely received before surgery. If it’s non surgical side it most likely is from malpositoning during surgery. Often patients are laying on their side during surgery with non surgical arm stretched outwards. Any pressure on ulnar nerve from poor positioning during a 1-2 hour surgery can cause temporary or permanent nerve damage.

    I am a doctor (psychiatrist) and my mother developed numbness and tingling in her hands, after consulting two doctors, a neurologist and an orthopedic I was desperate because none could help. I ended up searching it myself and from this video know it is a peripheral neuropathy and I have to consult a different neurologist this time and share my own thoughts and search result. Thank you for putting this togather.

      Now you see how desperate us - laymen are, when we need to "how to Google, UA-cam"? And even when we find out for ourselves what is wrong with us, doctors just dismiss us as "laymen who know shit". This is why I don't talk much to doctors, I just help myself as much as possible. Why would I lose my precious time with waiting and be misdiagnosed a couple of times?

      I had unbearable and incapacitating pain. all the Orthos (physiatrist and neck doc) did was recommend 4-5 weeks of physical therapy, which caused me more pain. I am now seeing a regenerative Doc. (physiatrist) and had prolotherapy Hydrodissection and Platelet Rich Plasma injections in my cervical spine. I am on my second day of recovery and feeling better already. This doc. not only sat me down beside him and went through the whole MRI Imaging with explanations, but did so with my x-ray, where he found I had "military neck" -a 45 minute review. The former PTs were having me do exercises that worsened my condition and caused more pain. My insurance did not cover it, but it has been worth it. I did the same for my knees 12 years ago. those orthos told me that the only way around my two torn meniscus's, would be to have surgery (at 35) and that in 10 years I would probably need knee replacements. They made it sound so "matter of fact", dogmatic, as if this was the only alternative. Well, I got Prolo and prp done for just under a year with some PT, and a year later the same docs could not find any tears on the new MRI. over 10 years later, I can run and still dance. I am for alternative diagnostics and therapy all the way.

    I have whole left side weakness. Face, left arm and left leg. It is like a line was drawn with a ruler in the middle of my body and left side the skin has a light loss of sensation.
    Apparently the reason is the degeneration on my neck and lower back area, says my ortopedic doctor.
    I also have bulging disk in the lower back which may cause my symptoms of an occasional numbness on my saddle area and genitals.
    It is super useful to learn about these problems and how they are caused! Your video is amazingly clear and easy to understand! I subscribed and I find that I want to learn more and more...Because you make it easy to learn! Great skill! Your video is 10/10. Superb! 👏

I’ve been dropping things inadvertently, and I have a really hard time with simple things such as zipping a zipper, squeezing a tube of toothpaste, and many more day to day activities. I’m utterly heartbroken at the thought I may have a permanent disability.

    I'm currently investigating an issue alike. Due to my symptoms, the potential culprit was the cervical spine but after the firsts tests (x-rays, MRI), we found out all the nerves in the cervical spine are clear, and very soon I will be taking the Electric Test you mentioned.

    Tingling and numbness on both legs came first, then pain started on both feet. I consider myself an active person, so when the pain started affecting my activities, I went to a podiatrist. Corrective action = #lapidusbunionectomy on both feet on 2015, four months apart. No plates but 7 screws total. 2019 was when the numbness and tingling in my hands and arms became annoying. I was negligent until I felt weakness with my grip and symptoms reached all the way to my shoulders and neck. Several consultations later, my neurosurgeon said it's cervical. Had #ACCF May2021 C5-C7. Now the numbness and tingling, sometimes pain and weakness, is back (hands, arms, elbow, shoulders and neck). Not constant but with increased frequency and with varying levels of intensity so I can highly relate to this video. After my cervical corpectomy, I was also told that I have mild carpal tunnel on my left hand so I still sleep with the brace, and I still practice the nerve glides. I'm an active bowler so I'm grateful that I'm right handed. Not sure what my next treatment would be but I sincerely hope that I wouldn't have to stop road cycling or bowling.

    I have reoccurring tenosynovitis in both my wrists so I pretty much know what pain is. It is excruciating. This pain was a little different. The palm of my left hand is aching so bad. It wakes me up and my first reaction was to lean my head over the edge of my bed while on my tummy and let my head hang and turn my head from one side to the other. Yes it looks funny, but it relieved my pain in my hand and forearm. So I know I have a pinched nerve in my neck. I need to see a chiropractor so bad. Money is right now so it's just not in the cards. This video was put out 4 years ago but it was extremely helpful to give me a visual. The diagram of the arm with the spine disc labeled (c7 and so on) was perfect for me to understand. Thanks for the video. It's a gift that keeps giving!

You described Double Crush Syndrome and I have a tumor on my spinal cord in C7-T1 which now has a small nodule growing out of it that has just showed up on two MRIs within the last six months. I get these MRIs every six months to just watch this anterior tumor. Both hands have been itching and burning severely and now my feet both of them have started as itching severely as well. I definitely need another EMG to find out where this peripheral neuropathy is stemming from. You will never know how this video has truly help me and soon my doctors.

    Thank you for your excellent explanation. I have neck and back issues and developed numbness in my hands over past several years. Hand splints really didn’t help so pretty sure where that’s coming from. Good info to share with my Orthopedist.

    Thanks! Hands in brace (lt) and bulky bandage (rt), so must be brief. Unremitting rt thumb tip tingling, got EMG, was told no cervical radiculopathy but severe CTS both hands, 55% left median nerve axon voltage but only 20% right. Discovered dominant rt. hand actually weaker than other (!) as well. Figured best to get ECTR ASAP on rt. hand, it was done 4 days ago. Tingling not gone yet. I'm 80 YO male in good shape. This video is hell of comprehensive, most I've encountered. An online handout for post-ECTR recovery mentions vitamin B6 50mg, 3x/day for 3 weeks was shown in studies to be beneficial. That's a lot, my PCP suggests going a bit easier, just 2x/day for the first 2 weeks, 3x/day the last week. With food. Surgeon told me pre-op won't know for 3-6 months how it went, that dead nerve fibers will not recover but "strangled" ones can.

    Worsening numbness burning and tingling in thumb, index and middle fingers, but the carpal tunnel tests are negative. Getting more painful every day. Pretty scared. Chiropractics maybe helping a little so does yoga, but not really effecting symptoms much. Thanks for any help you can provide.

    will the left hand also be affected by the nerve in the neck?

  • @davidjohnson4343
    @davidjohnson4343 Місяць тому

    I was 75 when I was originally diagnosed with carpel tunnel and trigger finger in both hands. I had both surgeries done on my right hand, but the recovery was so long I was reluctant to do the other. At the time I was checked for nerve problems in my neck with negative results. Now at 80, I've developed tendonitis in my right
    thumb, helped considerably by a steroid injection. I still have considerable numbness in my left hand and arm when driving, sitting in my recliner, and waking in the night. I've always had aching from a neck lash injury. Now wondering if my problem could be from Ulnar nerve {cubital tunnel syndrome. At age 77 I developed numbness in my feet, so now looking for some solutions. i'm pretty active and fit for an 80 year old.

    WOW this was so helpful! I’ve had pins and needles/numbness in my right hand, last three digits, for two weeks, after a woodworking project where I was hammering and chiseling. It’s very annoying but not debilitating. Not sure what I should do. Doctor visit or just time for nerves to heal from the trauma?
