definately, problems with "trigger" finger. speratic, but the last time, it kept happening and was very painful..

its my left side i have probs with but its my trigger finger too, recently noticed the tips of my fingers on my right hand get pins and needles when driving no pain thankfully, only mold pain in my neck which is getting stiff, will yoga help

I've been having trouble with several of my fingers locking. I thought it must be the muscle weakness in my hands.It just happens every once in a while.

i have developed hard non painful nodules on the joints of my fingers sharon

Interesting..it seems we all share the same thing. Is there a solution or do we just have to accept it? I am due to see first the neurologist and then the hand specialist...im not on meds yet..do they really help?

[shasha]

the fingers of my left hand curl inwards towards the palm but i can straighten them without pain but they do feel sore and stiff

[hilarypeta in reply to shasha]

thats like me..; but do any meds help with that? have you seen a hand specialist?

[shasha]

no i dont think there atre any of my meds that help but i dont get a huge change in anything when i take them apart from pain in my legs first thing in the morning - i sometimes take my meds ah hour early as i cannot go back to sleep - no i have not seen a hand specialist - just put it all down to good old parkie ;-

I started to have this problem a few years ago and just recently it affected my whole hand and the pain was terrible. It was like every finger was glued together and my thumb glued to the first finger. I just assumed the PD and probably some arthritis was the cause.

Does it affect your wrists at the same time . and are you having trouble feeding yourselves

[hilarypeta in reply to cabbagecottage]

I have a problem holding a knifestraight..cannot cut up my food easily..just tear meat apart. Partly due to hand not keeping straight and partly weakness..any answers?

[maryalice]

My wrists hurt as well as my fingers.. It is difficult for me to eat sometimes too.
