Pain In Right Hand (4th/5th Meta-carpal Fracture) Posted: 10-03-07 06:14am
Hi,
I have previous fractures on my 4th and
5th metacarpal for my right hand.
This was about 6 years ago.
Nowadays, I will have occasional pain and
stiffness in my right hand at the bones,
especially during cold temperature and
under load conditions.
However I will also feel slight pain in
the wrist as well.
Had a check by a specialist on this. X-ray
results are okay but there is volar
prominence on my right hand.
Basically the diagnosis seems to be okie.
But I am not too sure whether we are
missing anything.
Is it common to encounter such chronic
pain after fractures have healed?
