Can you please explain why your hands get flaming hot after they are numb?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: Actually they don't. You hands were numb secondary to vasoconstriction, (decreased blood flow). Once this passes the blood comes back into your hands and the relative temperature change feels like burning.
