| | DR V2.3: PAINFUL LEFT INDEX FINGER, AN OCCUPATIONAL HAZARD FOR BASSOONISTS |
 | | The finger and the nerve become ischemic, that is, the blood flow in them is less than it should be normally. | | | (2) This syndrome is caused by pressure on the radial neurovascular bundle of the index secondary to the individual manner of addressing the instrument and to the position and amount of tension in the left hand. | | | The symptoms first caused by early changes will probably be mild swelling, redness or paleness of the finger, or a sensation of "pins and needles' which disappear soon after the bassoon is set down. |
