What Causes Tingling Sensation In Hands And Fingers Of A COPD Patient?
I have COPD (not on oxygen), recently I have been having a tingling sensation in both hands/fingers. I usually happens when I have been sitting and then stand up and walk a short distance, then sit again. Once I sit again, the hands/fingers of both hands tingle/hurt for about 2 minutes, then goes away. This sometimes happens several times a day.
