My finger tips are going numb!?

[joshbond]

It started yesterday about 5 pm or so, my index finger on my right hand. The tip of it lost feeling, it feels dead kinda. Its not really bad but noticable.

Now today, my middle finger right next to it is also numb. WTF?!


Any of you e-doctors know what this is?

[KrushR]

have you changed chairs recently? different armrests?

My left hand started going numb after I hurt my shoulder and I started sitting differently at my desk. I was putting my elbow/forearm on the rest in a way that cut off circulation.

Nope. nothing new like that at all.


I think it might of been all those DTB chopz I did yesterday because thats when it started. But that doesn't explain it getting worse today.
although, I did spend about 2 hours on the contest theme pic, it took me forever to find the right sources.

Usually when you strain or sprain something....it always hurts worse the days afterwards. You may have the start of carpul tunnel. It usually starts in the index finger...spreading to each digit in order, going to the thumb last.
Or it just could be a pinched nerve.

maybe your just too fat for your blood to flow through your body

Damn!! She's fulla good news!!

You just need a good massage and a real hard dopeslap. Thats all. I'd recommend a chiropractor as well but I think the dopeslap will cover it.

LOL Pelican. I'm just watchin out for our fearless leader.


BTW JB....you aren't hypertensive or diabetic are you?

[joshbond]

I think Dr. Peli nailed it.




but ya, it sounds like it might be teh carp.
I've had problems with carp before, I usually just have to lay off the mouse for a few days and it clears up. But usually it hurts my wrists.

Could just be a pinched nerve or something too, maybe I slept on it wrong.

Or Sups might be on to something too, all my fat rolls may be cutting of the supply of blood.

Maybe it is an Aneurysm.... this could be very serious. You should go and see your doctor for a checkup.

it could be a sign of low calcium. that's what happens to me when mine gets low. that and my lips get numb also.

mine's because my parathyroids are removed which store it.

He may also have a Copper deficiency.... which leads to Aneurysms


Go see a doctor JB!

Maybe you put your fingers inside something inappropriate and now they're going numb because they're trying to commit suicide :emofingers:

[sman22]

did you punch something??

my right hand gets like that a lot now.... it goes numb or goes to sleep. its cause i shattered my hand punching something after i hit someone...

maybe you have some nerve damage ( like me) and you need it checked out
