How about the pain in the left wrist? What is numbness?
If the blood vessel is blocked, it will hurt; Meridian impassability, pain and numbness; Nerve block, paralysis; Once blood vessels, meridians and nerves are blocked, they are numb!
Pain is not terrible, numbness is harmful.
1, "The pain is mild and heavy, but it is difficult to cure". Pain is just blood stasis. If the pain is accompanied by redness, numbness and other symptoms, it indicates that a serious illness is coming. Compendium of Materia Medica once wrote: "Numbness is a harbinger of disease".
2. If there is numbness in hands and feet, it means that the cerebral blood vessels are blocked by blood clots, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the brain. This shows that patients must have diseases such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia and cerebral thrombosis. If it is not solved in time, the brain cells will be necrotic in a large area and the brain will die, which will eventually lead to stroke and hemiplegia.
3. If your arms, neck, waist and joints are numb. It means that you may have cervical spondylosis, lumbar process, or bone spur, which leads to long-term compression of cervical and lumbar nerves and blood vessels, poor blood flow and nerve interruption. It's like wires are often poorly contacted or power is cut off, and light bulbs are easily broken, as are human limbs. If the blood oxygen supply is insufficient for a long time, the nerve signal will not be stimulated, and the nerves in the limbs will slowly die.

How is wrist pain without trauma?
Wrist joint is a bridge connecting human forearm and hand, and its structure is complex. It consists of 8 carpal bones, distal ulna and radius, 5 metacarpal bases and complex ligaments, and can complete flexion, extension, ulnar deviation, radial deviation, rotation and their compound movements. It is precisely because of the complex structure and diverse movements of the wrist joint that the palm of your hand often supports the ground when you fall, which leads to easy strain and wrist pain. The causes of wrist pain are complex and diverse, and the common non-traumatic reasons are as follows:
1. strain disease. Long-term mechanical labor can easily lead to cumulative injury, wrist joint degeneration and strain, leading to joint pain. Many middle-aged and elderly people who do housework and take care of children are particularly prone to shoulder, elbow and wrist strain and pain. Wrist is mostly manifested as pain in the radial back, and the pain is obvious when clenching fists and twisting towels. The extensor pollicis longus tendon of thumb crosses the dorsal surface of radius of wrist. Repeated rubbing can lead to inflammation and pain. Most of these pains can be controlled by rest, changing living habits, sealing and physical therapy. Being engaged in computer work or playing computer games for a long time, clicking the mouse with your right hand quickly and repeatedly, which leads to paralysis, swelling, pain and spasm of wrist muscles or joints for a long time, which may lead to "mouse hand" or even "aseptic necrosis of lunate bone", resulting in stiffness, pain and numbness of index finger and middle finger, muscle weakness of thumb, pain and limited movement of wrist joints.
2. Rheumatic diseases. Rheumatic diseases are a general term for a large class of connective tissue diseases involving joints and ligaments. Common rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus arthritis and psoriatic arthritis all belong to this kind of disease. This kind of disease has clear diagnostic criteria and standardized treatment scheme, which can be well controlled through regular diagnosis and treatment. However, not all joint pain is rheumatism. Unexplained joint pain should be diagnosed and treated in the hospital. It is forbidden to take medicine because it is "rheumatism", which not only fails to achieve the therapeutic purpose, but also easily leads to drug damage.
3. Wrist joint and periarticular infection. The wrist joint and the bones that make up the wrist joint will be infected, causing wrist pain. At present, the incidence of tuberculosis is more and more hidden, and most of them lack the typical symptoms of tuberculosis. Only by comprehensive analysis of the patient's condition, examination and laboratory tests can early diagnosis and treatment be made. Acute attack of wrist joint suppurative arthritis and osteomyelitis, accompanied by fever, local redness and tenderness. Early diagnosis and standardized treatment with effective antibiotics can minimize joint injury and preserve joint function.
4. Osteopathy of wrist joint and bone tumor. Metabolic bone diseases, such as severe osteoporosis, can cause bone pain in many parts of the body, including wrist joints. It is necessary to make a clear diagnosis, try to find the cause and then do targeted treatment. Primary and metastatic tumors of bone can lead to bone destruction and pain. It is necessary to comprehensively analyze the condition, combine imaging data and pathological examination to determine the nature of the lesion and carry out targeted treatment.
