What Causes Numbness And Swelling On The Finger Tips?
I woke up with numbness and swelling in my fingertips about six days ago. After a couple of days, the symptoms spread to my hands, while maintaining in the fingertips. In the last two days, the numbness has spread to my torso and breasts. I feel like I have had Novocain injected all over my upper body. After a minute in the bath, my fingertips look like they have been in water for 20 mins.
