This we're asking if hand pain is keeping you awake? Any pain that makes it difficult to get a good night’s rest can be frustrating, and hand pain at night is no exception. Possible causes:
🤚 𝗧𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀
The swelling and inflammation of tendons in the hands can lead to pain and other symptoms that may affect your sleep.
🤚 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝗿 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿
Occurs when a tendon in the palm becomes inflamed, causing one or more fingers to lock in a painful, flexed position.
🤚 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗽𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝘂𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗹 𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗲
When the median nerve that runs through the wrist gets compressed, it can cause Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and symptoms are often worse at night.
🤚 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀
A frequent site of osteoarthritis in the hands is at the base of the thumb. Rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune inflammatory disease, often starts as pain in the small joints of the hands.
