Loss of feeling in h: a hand is not dangerous if for example you were sleeping on it, but otherwise it could be very dangerous, especially in an older person. It is not clear who the patient is in this situation. If this has happened and there was NO pressure on the hand, it should be checked quickly for loss of blood supply or damage to nerves or brain.
