A member asked:
What do you suggest if my hands go numb a lot. they do it more at night and it wakes me up with a bad burning painful sensation.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wrist splint: Sounds like you have carpal tunnel syndrome. This usually causes problems at night with pain, numbness, or burning sensations. A wrist splint worn to,bed can be very helpful, as can anti-inflammatory medication. If this does not help, then see your doctor.
