Feels like nerve pinching
Hi,
I had a hand injury where my hand was caught between 2 metal objects, a load swinged against my hand and it swelled up huge immediately on the top side. I was taken to the doctor, they done ex-ray and said no bones are damaged. The incident happened on the 21 December 2018. The swelling is gone, but I experience minor numbness between my index and middle finger. When I touch certain areas on the top side of my hand it gives an electric shock, it's also sore if it's pressed too hard. The doctor says nothing is wrong and it should heal in 3months, 3months is passed and it's still the same should I be worried? I'm a mechanical fitter and use my hand daily should I seek a 2nd opinion.
Thanks in advance.

Hello!
What you have described to me looks like a soft tissue injury that has involved nerves as well.
The numbness felt between index and middle finger is due to the compression or injury of the median nerve which is the nerve supplying the thumb, index and middle fingers.
As there is no bone injury, mainstream medicine will not be able to help you achieve a permanent cure.
However, homeopathy is equipped to handle cases like these.

Hi, I feel that you should take second opinion at the same time can do nerve conduction test to understand if there is any problem with nerves.
With homoeopathy I was able to help such cases. So will suggest you to meet homoeopathic doctor near you or can consult me.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any further doubts.
