Why do my hands feel numb

In fact, numbness in the hands without any pressure is a manifestation of disease, because when our nerves are compressed, we will feel stiff all over, and sometimes our actions are out of our control. Numbness in the hands will affect many things, and even when we are eating, we may suddenly feel numb and even cannot hold our own bowl. So why do our hands often feel numb?

Numbness in the hands and feet is usually related to peripheral neuropathy or cervical spondylosis. Using the same posture for a long time may cause numbness in the fingers. Do more activities and, if necessary, use some nerve nourishing drugs such as Mecobalamin, vitamin B12, etc. for treatment.

Numbness in the hands is caused by poor peripheral blood circulation. The numbness caused by insufficient local blood supply to the hands may be related to cervical spondylosis. : It is recommended to take vitamin B2 and Tianma tablets, pay attention to sleep, drink more warm water, and eat a light diet with less salt and sugar.

Numbness in the hands and feet caused by diseases include:

There are four common causes of numbness in the hands and feet:

First, people with diabetes may experience numbness in their hands and feet. If you experience frequent numbness, soreness, or swelling in any part of your body, you should check your blood sugar promptly.

The second is numbness caused by drugs or chemicals. For example, if you have a cold or diarrhea, taking berberine or furazolidone may cause numbness in your hands and feet. Numbness in your hands and feet may also occur if you stay in an environment containing hydrogen, arsenic, carbon disulfide, etc. for a long time.

The third is numbness caused by neuritis. The most common symptoms of neuritis are numbness of hands and feet, muscle atrophy, and weakness in the limbs. If you have diarrhea or a cold for half a month, it will cause neuritis.

Fourth, numbness occurs scattered in the limbs. Numbness does not occur in the limbs at the same time, but occurs in a scattered manner. This means that local nerves are stimulated, such as a stroke after being drunk, coma causing stimulation of the head nerves, stimulation of the hand nerves by the elderly using crutches, upper limb numbness caused by cervical spondylosis, and leg numbness caused by stimulation of the lumbar shoulder nerves.

Numbness in the hands and feet cannot be treated symptomatically, but the cause must be treated. No matter what causes numbness in the hands and feet, you should first go to the hospital's neurology department for examination to determine whether the nerves are damaged and what kind of stimulation they have received. If it is a neurological problem, an electromyography examination will be required to further confirm the extent, range, and nature of the nerve damage. If the numbness of hands and feet is caused by other reasons, then transfer to other related departments for treatment. For numbness of hands and feet caused by nerve damage, the choice of whether to use medication or surgery should be based on the degree, scope, and nature of the nerve damage. Drug treatment is usually combined with acupuncture and physical therapy to promote rapid recovery. Surgical treatment is to divert the compressed nerves through surgery to relieve the compression and stimulation of the nerves. The degree of cure depends mainly on the cause and nature of the neuropathy. If it is peripheral nerve damage (nerves other than the brain and spinal cord), the recovery time is generally longer.
