Can you tell me why when i wake up my hands tingle and feel numb.?

Maybe carpal tunnel: Carpal tunnel syndrome commonly awakens people because of numbness and tingling (paresthesias). If it is a persistent problem, you should see a physician and the treatment may be as easy as wearing splints on the wrists at night or in more severe cases surgery can provide lasting relief.
