Pain from Fan blowing | Arthritis Information
Does this happen to anyone else?
Whenever it's hot in the room I turn the fan on and within about 10 minutes of it blowing on my arms, my elbows start to hurt. I have the same thing happen with my toes. I have not been diagnosed with anything yet because of lack of insurance at this time, but have had pain in my elbows, ankles, hips,fingers,toes and high up on my neck, for quite sometime now. I also have some strange knot on the back of one of my ankles. Does anyone else have joint pain with the fan blowing on them?
Are you overly sensitive to cold? Even if you can't get to a doctor yet, try keeping a log of all your daily aches and pains and when they started.
Thanks mab52, I'll do that. 41/2 years ago I was given a nerve conduction test, and the result was bilateral carpal tunnel, but I never had the numbness in my hands and my hands never woke me up at night. I had pain in my finger joints(same as now) and I really think it wasn't carpal tunnel. I figured they knew what they were talking about, so I had the surgery in my left hand. It was never any difference in the way it felt. It felt just as before the surgery, so I don't believe what I've been feeling all this time is carpal tunnel at all. My middle fingers have started to bend at the middle joint toward my pinky fingers, and I've never heard of that with carpal tunnel before. Thanks very much for answering mab52....take care
