What Causes Nerve Pain Around The Wrist Region?
I have been having what seems like nerve pain (it radiates) in my left wrist at the base of my thumb. It comes and goes but has lasted for about 5 weeks. I am 68 and otherwise very healthy. I practice yoga regularly but am not aware of having caused any injury to this area.
