What Does Tingling Sensation In The Right Hand Indicate?
HI, I m 53 year old female, and have developed tingling in my right hand especially in the am. My finger tips feel bruised some mornings. I ve been waking up at night with these feelings and try to not sleep on my stomach with my arms at sides or up on pillow which helps a little but I ve always been a stomach sleeper. It s going on about 8 weeks, I m also wearing a wrist support ( for about 1 week)at night but I can t wear it all night without taking it off after about 4 hours. This past week it seems to be uncomfortable all day and my arms are tired . Any suggestions?
As per your query you have sensation of tingling & numbness on the right hand . Well there can be many reason for symptoms you mention in query like sign of nerve damage , repetitive stress , injuries, bacterial or viral infections, toxic exposures, and systemic diseases such as diabetes and peripheral neuropathy . There can be other reasons also like nerve entrapment , carpal tunnel syndrome , ulnar nerve palsy, hormonal imbalances and vitamin deficiencies ( vitamin B1 .
