"Hand Dizzy"

Post by k1999 »

My six hear old has been complaining that her hand feels "dizzy". She has used this term for over a year now however the complains have become more frequent.

It is difficult to get more details out of her. We have talked to her ortho and ot's about it and
they just said to keep an eye on it etc.

Has anyone's elses child complained about hand sensations?

When I read the words "hand dizzy" I thought of my own carpal tunnel issues. When my nerve in my wrist is compressed (swelling) I get this buzzing sensation and it does feel like my hand is dizzy. You may want to ask your bpi specialist about this. Maybe something is getting compressed or is compressed and is causing the dizziness. I also "hear" it. It sounds like a loud buzzing noise. I know that may sound wierd but it can become very loud especially at night if my wrist gets bent for too long.
