What Causes Tingling In Fingers?

I woke up this morning and my left pinky and ring fingers were tingling. I thought it was from sleepy in a weird position. However, 6 hours later it is still tingling. Doing a little research, I found that eating contaminated fish may be the cause. I ate fish last night for dinner and then ate leftover fish for lunch. While shopping, I experienced rather severe nausea; however that has subsided. Should I see a medical professional?

Hello,

Most likely the tingling is caused by improper sleep position, nausea, in the other hand, may be caused by eating contaminated fish.

If the nausea continues, or you will explain diarrhea or vomiting, you should see your Doctor.

Otherwise, tingling should subside with time.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
