FAQs About Pain Medicine

Q1: What are the signs of carpal tunnel syndrome?
A1: Symptoms include tingling, numbness, or weakness in your hand—especially the thumb, index, and middle fingers. It’s often worse at night or after repetitive hand use.

Q2: Do I need surgery for a rotator cuff tear?
A2: Not always. Some tears respond well to physical therapy, injections, or activity modification. Surgery may be needed for large or persistent tears that cause pain or limit mobility.

Q3: What’s the difference between tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow?
A3: Tennis elbow affects the outer part of the elbow (lateral), while golfer’s elbow affects the inner side (medial). Both involve tendon inflammation from overuse or strain.
