can anyone help.
i get bad pain in my right hand every morning.
due to having a childhood illness i don`t have the full use of my left hand so for years and years i have had to depend on the right hand doing evrything.
i went to the doctor and she thinks i have done the tendens in my wrist. she put me on pills for the swelling. thayt was weeks ago but i still get pains each morning. could it be arthritis

It might be that or Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, which can also make you wrists hurt and swell. I have both unfortunately and my wrists have swelled and it caused some other problems with my fingers not being able to straighten out. You might want to have a nerve test called an EMG on your wrist done to see if carpal tunnel is a factor. Otherwise have your doctor test you for arthritis. Best of luck!
