Is this wasting please

[JJ33]

Hi
Have been worried about hands for a while but last few months they've definitely gotten worse

I think it's called the extensor tendon. It looks like fat or wasting
GP says nothing to worry about its just age
But to me it's a sign something seriously wrong

If you are concerned and you clearly are, go to a good hand doctor and/or neurologist. You didn't mention that you are dropping things or have been measured for any clinical weakness. My had doc is the first guy who spotted my problem so they are sometimes a good bet.

Go about your business and get the second opinions. If it is the worst, then actually it will lessen your anxiety as there is zip anyone can do and an early diagnosis is just that; an early diagnosis and it won't change the outcome one bit.

I don't know if it's just me but I didn't notice anything off in any of the pictures.

You mean your doc told you or he saw my pics?

Thanks, they don't look boney?
