What Causes Tingling Sensation And Numbness In Hands?
I have dupuyten s contracture, shoulder impingements due to my bone structure, and possibly carpal tunnel, I have electrical shock in my hands when I turn a water faucet, pain in the palms of my hand, numbness and almost constant tingling in my fingers and thumbs, motrin helps all symptoms. The numbness and tingling is worse in the mornings but is present all day. I think my hand problems are due from my shoulder impingement. I am scheduled for a nerve conduction test, but just wondering can shoulder problems cause my hand problems??? My age is 54 and I have never done repetitive work

Shoulder problem don't cause these symptoms. To differentials should be considered in your case .
1. Carpel Tunnel syndrome. .....rule out by ncv study
2. Cervical ridiculopathy. .....rule out by MR I cervical spine.
Hope my advice will help you. Take care. Don't forget to rate me.
