When I get extremely carsick, my hands will get tingly and contract. I can t open them as if they are paralyzed (looks like I have Dupuytren s Contracture) and when the carsickness is going away, my hands shake so bad and my fingers tremble uncontrollably. Is the hand paralysis normal for severe carsickness?
Hi, In my opinion that could be only over stress of muscles that is cured by relaxation, muscle relaxants, and physiotherapy. But if it is Dupuytren Contracture, it typically progresses slowly, over years. The condition usually begins as a thickening of the skin on the palm of your hand. As it progresses, the skin on your palm might appear puckered or dimpled. A firm lump of tissue can form on your palm. This lump might be sensitive to the touch but usually isn't painful. In later stages of Dupuytrens contracture, cords of tissue form under the skin on your palm and can extend up to your fingers. As these cords tighten, your fingers might be pulled toward your palm, sometimes severely. The ring finger and pinky are most commonly affected, though the middle finger also can be involved. Only rarely are the thumb and index finger affected. Dupuytrens contracture can occur in both hands, though one hand is usually affected more severely. The main or exact cause are still under researches till now. So I would recommend relaxing your Chat Doctor.  That would be the best choice for you. Hope the above information helps. Any further clarifications feel free to ask.
