What Causes Numbness In The Fingers Post An Accident?
I had a massive stroke march 2015,an accident also that left me with a prosthetic shoulder numerous bone and forearm,now my fingers are often tingling and get knumb.I also have atrial tribulation.lots of issues haha:-) the arm with this new problem of tingling is my left arm,the same with the prosthetic bone or pipe.not sure.
It could be due to injury to one of the nerves in the arm. As it is already late, repair may not be possible. Consult a neurologist and get evaluated. An MRI scan is required for further assessment. As a first line management you can take Vitamin-B12 tablets for symptomatic relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
