Vibration White Finger Diagnosis |
| A visit to your GP is the first port of call when trying to establish a
vibration white finger diagnosis. Often the GP will refer you to a specialist such as a neurologist or a
rheumatologist if they suspect vibration white finger.
|
 |
| In order to determine the vibration white finger diagnosis, a history of long term
exposure to vibration must be evident. A full medical case history will be compiled including presenting symptoms,
their onset and any changes in severity. Also details of vibration exposure are gathered; the types of tools used,
the number of years exposed, an estimate of daily hourly exposure and method of use.
|
|
| A medical/clinical assessment process will be undertaken consisting of an
examination and tests. The clinical examination should include the vascular, nervous and musculoskeletal systems.
The findings will then indicate a vibration white finger diagnosis with the exclusion of all other similar conditions
and the stage to which the disease is at.
