Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Numbness And Tingling Sensation In The Hands And Fingers?
I had two parathyroid removed the first week of August. Since then I have an enlarged vein on my wrist from the IV. My hands and fingers are numb and tingling. Now my mouth feels funny. I was told to put an ice pack on my wrist. My calcium is good. I don t know what else to do . I have never had a hand problem before. Never. When you ask questions , sometimes the staff doesn t listen to understand, they listen to defend. I just retired last year and just want to be healthy with working hands
