    It does remind me of carpal tunnel syndrome.  Are you someone who does repetitive motions with that hand/arm?  That is usually what causes CT.  A neurologist could tell you is this is what you have

    I did data entry all day long for a business and they say that

    caused mine.

    Now that I am retired and 67 when I am on the computer my hands

    and fingers jump at the keys,it also hurts.I have a lot of tingling

    and numbness with it.I hope this helps,sometimes we think of

    the worse things first and become afraid.This is something

    that can be fixed but I have chosen to leave mine alone.Just a

    personal choice.

      There is a relatively new non-invasive surgery, in and out and most heal very well, in fact back to their old selves.  As we age, conditions like this can get progressively worse.  Think about how you use your hands and if it is really ok to have this pain for the rest of your life.  I have learned at 61 that every bump, sprain, tear or break will come back to haunt you in the form of chronic pain and inflammation and could even cause you to be unable to use that hand.  We can live with a lot of things but if you are not too terribly old, this is an easy fix and not worth suffering forever with.  I understand your decision to do nothing as I am there when something new pops up (like the blood clot in my lung I am dealing with now...) so I am taking blood thinners and being monitored more closely than I like, but I am hoping my new boo boo is a one time thing.  I have been known to be wrong...
