How Can Spinal Stenosis And Arthritis Be Treated?
I have a 50-50 problem I am 52 female with spinal stenosis/degenerative arthritis and 4 yrs ago I under went surgery to correct a bulging disc and the spots where the spine was pinched. I also worked for 20 yrs with mercury vapor. I have a lot of conditions of mercury exposure along with ones that could be back related. Is there any defining difference between the two. I m at kidney failure and paralysis stage.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Tennis elbow may be, as well as carpal tunnel syndrome. It happens when nerves are compressed at carpal tunnel due to inflammatory disease of ligaments and facies. Try to wash with gloves on, avoid very cold water and take Ibuprofen or Paracetamol for pain relief. If the symptoms get worsened contact your orthopedician.
All the best.
