[|Human|] I had a car accident 8 weeks ago. I had pain in my left wrist. They said it was tendinitis but at three weeks after accident they rayed. No scaphiod fracture showed up. I have numbness in fingers but most of pain has subsided unless I over use it. Went for carpal tunnel testing today but negative. Any thing else I should do or just put up with it.
[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for providing the brief history of you.a thorough neuromuscular assessment is needed along with MRI of cervical spine. As you have met an accident and got all the possible test done which are negative I suspect it to be a whiplash injury which is possible in RTA. Also, the symptoms of numbness are rising, it could be due to pinching of nerve in the cervical spine. Getting a test of MRI for C.spine is done, one can understand the soft tissues better. Treatment should be simple with physical therapy and in 2-3 weeks of time you can be back to action. Majority of RTA coming to my clinic are having similar complains and most of them have small fibers torn in the cervical spine leading to numbness and tingling of finger. Majority respond well to physical therapy. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
