Sorry to hear it, Hypress. I'm not a doctor, but I'd think it's related to "repetative stress", or whatever other name it goes by. The two types of doctors I'd consider using are chiropractor and surgeon. Some chiropractors also practice accupuncture.

Usually specialists are also surgeons, who would have much more experience in your problem. Chiropractors work on everything, so their experience is usually more general. I had a chiropractor work on me for a whiplash & in hindsight it probably wasn't the right doctor. I've also had pinched nerves & had a chiropractor that got me back to work the next day.

It's likely that the insurance will pay if a specialist is referred by your family doctor. If surgery is recommended, you'd still have the choice & might consider taking the diagnosis & pictures (x-ray or scans) to the chiropractor for traetment.
