Tingling fingers usually arises from a lack of blood supply to an area or damage to a nerve or nerves that supply the hand and fingers, such as carpal tunnel syndrome or a cervical disk problem. Tingling fingers can also result from infection, inflammation, trauma, and other abnormal processes.
How do I stop my fingertips from tingling?
stretching out your fingers as wide as you can and holding the position for about 10 seconds. moving your hands around in a clockwise direction about 10 times, then reversing the direction to reduce muscle tension. rolling your shoulders backward five times, and then forward five times to keep them relaxed.
When should I worry about tingling in my hands?
Seek immediate medical care (call 911) if a sudden tingling sensation in your hand is accompanied by numbness or weakness on one side of your body; a change in level of consciousness or alertness, such as passing out or unresponsiveness; or the worst headache of your life, as these can be signs of stroke.
