A member asked:

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 ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Highly likely that you have developed nerve compression at wrist associated with your work (carpal tunnel syndrome). This could be confirmed via EMG/ NCS study, and your physician can evaluate. You might benefit from wearing a nocturnal wrist/ hand splint which will stabilize your position during nite.
