Can Pain In Hands Be Early Signs Of Carpal Tunnel Or Arthritis?

Pain in either hands when squeezing or gripping objects with force. Sometimes pain in either wrist as well but otherwise never bothersome during other daily activities. I am an electrician and only 27 years old. Wondering if it may be early signs of Carpal Tunnel or Arthritis?

After going through your query I came to know that you has pain in either hands when squeezing or gripping objects with force.You is worried that if it may be early signs of Carpal Tunnel or Arthritis . I think it is not a early signs of Carpal Tunnel or Arthritis. I think it may be due to Vitamin deficiency and general weakness. So you should take Vitamin B and C. You should also got yourself examined for thyroid function test. As thyroid disease may cause these symptoms. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it.
