5 exercises to improve hand mobility and reduce pain

Great "link" Gilda.  Although I often perform hand exercises (for historic and inherited osteoarthritis) but some of these were "new" to me......it's always nice to discover new ones!!!! 

Hi there just new to this, I was wondering has anybody had revision hip surgery as I am about to undergo procedure soon and feeling very anxious. Many thanks

hi.i suffer from osteoarthritis in my right knee and the bottom of my spine.i also have a trapped nerve in my spine.lately the pain in my back lags and feet has become very painful. my g.p. said its sciatica.ican,t stand for more than15 minutes.the pain starts in my lower back.iget a burning sensation in my groin area and then i loose all feeling in my lower legs and feet.i then collase.i don,t think it,s sciatica.any information would be of great interest to me.thak you.

I suffered from the same thing for months on end, couldn't stand, sit, even laying on the bed was agony. I ended up sleeping in the car as the car seat was the only comfortable way to sleep. After several visits to the GP and many mind blowing drugs to help with the pain, I demanded an MRI. It was discovered that I had a prolapsed disc and it was resting in my sciatic nerve. An operation was performed and when I awoke from the anesthetic the pain had instantly gone. I have osteo and rheumatoid arthritis, but it had nothing to do with either. Get it checked out demand the MRI. Hope this helps.

Broadway is very right. I had exactly the same thing. I suffered for 6 moths before I was referred to a Neurosurgeon who did an MRI scan and discovered that my Sciatic nerve was solidly jammed between my L3/  L4. He performed an operation Hemi Laminectomy and micro discectomy where he had to cut half of the discs off to free the nerve. There was immediate relief from then on. So don't waste any more time. Demand an MRI scan asap. Good luck. Would be nice to hear of your outcome. Hope this helps.
