Why are my hands weak? I have these diseases

Everything you do in life requires the use of your hands and feet. Lack of strength will definitely bring about many adverse effects. Studies have found that weakness in the hands and feet is most likely caused by lumbar disc herniation; it may also be due to further aggravation of cervical spondylosis, with herniated discs, hyperplastic bone spurs, and ligament tissue compressing the nerve roots, spinal cord, blood vessels, and sympathetic nerves, resulting in symptoms such as radiating hand pain, numbness, and weakness in the hands.

1. Caused by lumbar disc herniation

Weakness in the hands and feet is most likely caused by lumbar disc herniation. As the symptoms of lumbar disc herniation continue to worsen, you may experience foot pain, numbness, discomfort, soreness or weakness when walking, or intermittent claudication. At this time, patients often think it is just ordinary fatigue and do not take it seriously, not knowing that they have already left a serious root of the disease.

2. Caused by cervical spondylosis

If cervical spondylosis worsens further, the protruding intervertebral disc, hyperplastic bone spurs, and ligament tissue will compress the nerve roots, spinal cord, blood vessels, and sympathetic nerves, and symptoms such as radiating hand pain, numbness, and weakness in the hands may occur. The arms and shoulders are often sore and numb, the fingers cannot make fine movements, there are difficulties holding a pen to write, and chopsticks to eat, and the movements are not agile or they fall. Sometimes compression of blood vessels and sympathetic nerves can cause dizziness, blurred vision, palpitations, and abnormal blood pressure.

After reading the above introduction, I believe you all know what the possible causes of weakness in your hands and feet are. Experts suggest that no matter what causes your condition, the best way is to go to the hospital for examination in time, and then receive scientific treatment after the condition is confirmed, so that the phenomenon of weakness in hands and feet will not persist. I hope that patients can pay attention to it and understand that if the disease is not treated, it will only get worse, especially orthopedic diseases, which will not heal themselves, so I hope everyone can take the initiative to treat it and protect their health.
