You could have: nerve compression in your wrist! The exact nerve and "place" depends upon where the "tingling" is The median nerve when compressed produces tingling in the thumb and first three fingers. The ulnar the last two. (Sometines the 3rd finger is "half and half") You need an examination. Start with your PCP (Primary Care Provider!!
