Here also reports are okay. They didnot found any problem in my left hand. But I am feeling the pain get worsened day after day and recently I am feeling pain in my leg fingers specially Thumb and Index finger of both the legs.

For several months my mom(62 yr old) have been getting this weird sensation that my skin is crawling. This happens just behind my right shoulder blade in exactly the same place every time. It generally happens for no reason that she can fathom. It is a sort of itching sensation and then a sensation that there is something crawling under her skin. When She rub it with my fingers it disappears for a while but inevitably it returns within a few minutes. There is no pain involved.
Would be interested to find out if there is a medical explanation for this!
Thank you.
I am a 57 year old woman with pain in my right hand which causes me pain when I try to open a door or twist a top of a jar. I have developed a cysts on the front of my wrist two inches below the bottom of my thumb. It does not hurt at night at all, but apon rising and I start to use that hand it becomes uncomfortable. I used to tend bar when I was in my twenties and thirties , possibly that is where the over use of my hand came from. Please suggest a Homeo solution as I will need to take care of this ASAP when I start my new job, tending bar again!
Sincerely,
