Chirospasm


Chirospasm

(KY-ro-spaz-im)

Noun:

-Spasm of the muscles of the hand, as in writers' cramp.

From “chir-“ word-forming element meaning hand, from Latinized form of Greek “kheiro-“+“spasm” from Old French “spasme" - directly from Latin “spasmus” from Greek “spasmos”.

Used in a sentence:

“I bought a typewriter because my chirospasm was so painful I couldn't write anymore; but now I require surgery for the carpal tunnel.”
