Numbness In Finger, Takes Time To Get Back Normal. Anything To Worry?

Hi
My fingers are numb and it takes some time to get back to normal when I get up in the morning. This started some time ago and I thought it's not much of a problem since the numbness was gone after my morning shower. However my fingers are now numb and stay so for a long time. Some times they get so during the day. My husband gives me a light neck massage when it wont get better and I feel that the feeling in my fingers return to normal. Is this a cause for concern?
Thank you very much

No one asked for money before, so I am not interested anymore
