Wrist pain

I feel the painful sting at my wrist again.. I said again is because i had it since April 2011. It was very painful that time but went away on and off though the vein is still slightly swollen. But i can do things normally, write, use the computer, etc without the sting. It was only painful when i used too much strength to play badminton or play the piano. Now it came back all of a sudden even though i didn't do all that...

It's not really the wrist part, but rather more to my thumb and index finger. I sprained them when i was holding a 2L separating funnel with both of that fingers. Silly me..i know.. I was actually forcing myself to hold it while i was weighing something.

I went to see a few doctors for treatment. The first one gave me diclofenac but it was too strong for me and I got gastric after 2 days. Another gave me Piroxicam (Feldene) but the doctor only prescribed enough medicine for a week as there's side effect for taking too much. All the medicine never really work for me. I went to see a specialist in Pantai Hospital and he told me it's just muscle pain and that I should soak my hand in hot water for 20mins everyday. I didn't really follow and eventually the pain left but the vein is still like that.

Mom suggested me to massage my hands. No good either. I even went for acupuncture treatment. It was extremely painful when the needle was poked into my palm! Gosh...my hand was numb the whole day, i can't even move my fingers after that and for the subsequent week, i have to bandage my hands to avoid from using my hand too much.

I hope the pain will go away soon, before my long holiday. Otherwise, i won't enjoy my holiday 100%. I'm really worried now and hope it will heal on its own.
