What Causes Tingling Sensation In The Fingers?

I was outside today. Holding my dogs leash tightly in my left hand. I felt my right hand tingle in the fingertips and then the left. As a few minutes went by my right hand curled in and I couldn t physically move my fingers or straighten them out. It affected the left hand too. I felt tingling in the fingers, and in my feet and lower leg. Went away in about 15 minutes. Never had that before.

Hi,

Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your hand tingling sensation.

As per your history you had tight rope around your risk,
Because of that compression there is transient nerve block.
This block can cause numbness and tingling sensations of hand. So you don't need to worry it will be normal after some time.

Tingling sensation can also be because of the deficiency of certain nutrients like vitamin B 12 and calcium.
You need to visit a general physician in case you feel continous numbness or tingling sensations.

Hope my answer will help you and you can write to us if you feel any need for further assistance.

Regards
Dr Muzaffer Hussain Parray.
