Medical / Hand/anatomy
German term or phrase: Handstrahl
medical report:
leichte Störung der Oberflächensensibilität zwischen dem ersten und zweiten Handstrahl.

Can't find the term anywhere, but when looking at my anatomy plates, it seems to be the Tuberculum ossis scaphoidei and Os lunatum, or, in plain English, scaphoid tubercle and lunate bone. If anyone could confirm please?
Many thanks.

Explanation:
Is it possible that they are cleaning the area with a shower head and the sensitivity changed between the first rinse and the second?

Maybe I am drinking too much coffee, too.
