Brief Answer:
Can be palmar fasciitis.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I have seen all the attached reports. The X-ray and nerve conduction are all normal. The yellow coloration of one palm and the pain can be related to fasciitis- inflammation of palmar fascia. This also decreases the blood supply thus causing paleness of the hand.
This needs regular pain killers and stretching exercises of the hand along with a regular massage twice a day after a hot compress to increase the blood supply in the area. This will improve gradually over weeks.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.

So she no need to take any vitamin tablets. Is that correct?

Also please send me youtube videos on stretching exercises and name of the pain killer & how long it take to cure completely.

Is yellow color is something serious and need to be worried if occurred again?

Brief Answer:
Vitamin B12 supplements will help.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
She has a history of surgery in the arm. This can be related to a mild nerve irritation also. Taking Vitamin B12 supplements - methylcobalamin and calcium supplements will also help. The medicines that has been prescribed to her are correct and will help her.
Pain killer will give temporary relief. She can have ibuprofen to help.
The yellow color suggests decreased blood circulation also. If there is any numbness in the fingers then it needs further evaluation.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
Regards.

Numbness and pain in all fingers are still there and she can't do any day to day activity as well for eg., holding water bottle, cooking, holding her child...

You have mentioned that mild nerve irritation is due to surgery. Is numbness, itching are due to this? If so can you please suggest the remedy.

Please let me know what kind of evaluation is required for numbness.

Mild nerve irritation can cause numbness and itching also. Methylcobalamin supplements and medicines like gabapentin will also help. Mild nerve irritation is not detected by tests. It is diagnosed based on clinical symptoms.
