How should numbness in fingers and toes be treated?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Depends on reason: Numbness in fingers and toes can have a number of reasons to occur, and the first step in treating it is to find out what is causing it to treat the underlying condition. Diabetes, anxiety/hyperventilation, autoimmune disease; the list of possible causes is fairly long. This warrants a full evaluation in clinic.

Many possibilities: Numbness can occur from various reasons. Some potential causes include vitamin deficiency, nerve damage, nerve compression, and alcohol over consumption, side effects of different medications, or as a result of different systemic medical conditions. Get evaluated by a professional to determine the exact cause of the numbness in order to obtain the best possible treatment.
