Slept On Hand By Folding It. Started Getting Tingling Sensation On Palm And Hand. Worrisome
Thanks for posting this query.
I have noted all your complaints and image attached.
The tingling sensations that you had could be related to pressure on nerves while sleeping. I am not sure if this has improved or not.
1. I would not have been concerned if it has improved.
2. If it has not improved yet, as you have symptoms in both sides you will need a clinical examination by a neurophysician. Your neurologist by means of detailed examination can determine if there are signs of peripheral nerve damage. He/she may subsequently order tests like elbow, it may be related to the nerve compression.
Therefore, I urge you to visit your doctor's office for detailed examination and tests. In the interim taking vitamin b12 supplements will benefit you.
Hope this will help you. Let me know if you need further clarifications.
Wish you good health
