A myRAteam Member asked a question 💭
Burlington, VT

Does anyone have Arthritis in there Wrists? I thought I had Carpel Tunnel but the orthopedic says it’s Arthritis. But the thing is my Wrists/fingers will get numb sometimes and tingle, but it’s not all of the time. Does anyone experience the same thing?

Yes, I have arthritis in my wrists, hands and fingers. That's where it all began. I range from numbness and tingling to electric shockwaves through my hands and now after 6 years my fingers are curling inward and it is difficult to hold things or my fingers will lock into place. RA has a range of symptoms and that's why its hard to diagnose sometimes. I have found that heat has help me most and medicines. Good luck I hope this helps you.

I'm struggling with the same thing. In my case, I have carpal tunnel. I also have a lot of osteoarthritis in my hands. Because of this, my hands are sometimes warm. It's winter, so I am definitely popular since everyone wants to hold my hands! :) For me, it just depends on how I feel - whether I need heat or cold.
