Hi all, I had a sudden onset of sever burning pain in the palmer aspect of my hand right under the knuckle of the middle finger. When I touch it, it causes the pain to escalate. After about an hour I started to feel tingling in the hand, especially in the middle and the adjoining fingers. Now it hurts all the time. I ended up at an urgent care center. They said they feel I have neurapraxia but I didn't injure the hand in any way. They fitted me with a brace to protect the area from being aggravated. Their discharge paperwork lists PN but states that I should follow up with an ortho doc. I'm confused and would appreciate anyones view of this.

Thanks for reading, ee
