Examination: You should determine and cure cause of your problem rather than just trying to mask symptoms. Lots of possibilities, so you will have to see a Physician to determine "why."

Woke up with swollen/sore index finger (low part of finger, between hand and big knuckle). Has happened before. No trauma at all before sleeping. ?

I woke after good sleep to find my left hand and fingers (apart from little finger ) numb and tingling like 'pins and needles'. No pain but 3rd time in 18 months this has happened. It always clears by end of work ( I'm a barber)... Should I worry ?
