What Causes Numbness In The Fingers?
My husband (70) has been experiencing numbness in his fingers and sometimes his fingers curl toward his palm and is painful. His wrist sometimes hurts as well. He takes his blood pressure and it is 135/70. He is losing ability to grip as well. He takes blood pressure meds. He has been doing work in the heat outside and tanning during high temps. It has been going on for about a week to 10 days.
