What Could Cause Blotches In Hands?
Hi, for the last week I have been experiencing dizzy spells and this morning I woke with numbness on my left side, neck, shoulder, back , arm and fingers. And now I've noticed my hands are blotchy. White dark and normal. It hurts when touched, even just touching my skin. Do you think this requires attention straight away or will a visit to the gp on Tuesday be fine? Cheers

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that the symptoms of numb ness of fingers may be due to the cervical spondylosis.
The other possibility is the herpes simplex, due to viral infection of the brachial nerve.
Earlier the treatment is started, the complete the remission of pain is expected.
I advise you to consult a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
