I notice that when i hold my phone for less then 5 mins. i start to get tingling sensation to my fingers. what is that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tingling: Pain, numbness, tingling, weakness and night pain are the most common symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. It can be brought on by holding a phone or hairdryer. Night splinting and vit b6 can help. See a hand surgeon if it persists.
