A member asked:

I have numbness in the tip of my right index finger. started two days ago, i haven't injured it in anyway. its just totally numb.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Numbness: you probably bruised the superficial nerve to the tip of the finger and this can be done without you recognizing it. It should gradually return to normal
