Hand Shakes And Retracting Thumb
Posted: 08-23-07 15:26pm

I often get shakes in my right hand and arm, especially after resting it such as in my vehicle window or the arm rest. Today, by thumb retracted under my hand without me doing so and stayed this way for several minutes. I am wondering if this could possibly be symptom(s) of carpal sunnel syndrome or something else someone may have heard about?

i dont know about the thumb doing that on its own, but i have cts and often times when my thumb is feeling hypersensitve or tingling, the make a fist with my thumb inside, so i dont feel textures on it.

i also know that cts if not remedied can cause your thumb muscle to become essentially ruined. read up on it n wikipedia.
