Why is my right hand numb and swollen?

I believe that most people have experienced numbness and swelling in their right hand in daily life. Most people think that this symptom is harmless, so they don’t pay much attention to it. However, if a patient often experiences numbness and swelling in his right hand, it must be taken seriously, because the body may have some disease. So what disease is the numbness and swelling of the right hand warning the body?

1. Wrong sleeping posture

In life, some people do not have an correct sleeping posture at night, and sometimes they maintain the same sleeping posture for a long time, which will cause certain pressure on their arms and fingers, so they will feel numbness and swelling in their fingers after waking up in the morning. This symptom can be alleviated if you change your sleeping position appropriately when sleeping.

2. Insufficient blood supply to the brain

In fact, when the blood supply to the brain is insufficient, the fingers may feel swollen and numb, accompanied by dizziness. There is a very important relationship between insufficient blood supply to the brain and cerebral arteriosclerosis. If you experience numbness and swelling in your hands for a long time, it is best to go to the hospital for relevant examinations.

3. Cervical spondylosis

For some white-collar office workers, they usually sit in front of the computer all day, so they will have cervical spondylosis problems over time, which will also cause swollen and numb fingers after getting up in the morning, because cervical spondylosis will compress the nerves, causing numbness in the fingers and reducing the hand's grip strength. Therefore, for people who suffer from neck discomfort, it is best to go to the hospital for relevant examinations and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment. Over time, this symptom can be effectively relieved.

4. Kidney deficiency

We all know that the kidneys are very important organs in the human body, but when there is a problem of kidney deficiency, it can also cause a person's fingers to swell and become numb. Therefore, we should strengthen exercise and training in our daily life to enhance the body's immunity and resistance, so as to effectively relieve the symptoms of numbness in fingers.
