Hello and thank you for the question!
Usually the sensation of tingling of even numbness of fingers and hands, is due from pressure on nerves . May be that in the accident you were involved in, may damaged part of your nerves, which is responsable for the symptomes you prescribe. I would like to suggest you to do an MRI and take an appointment with a Neurologist for further evaluation of your symptoms.
Best regards!
