Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Based on the symptoms, we need to exclude ischemia- lack of blood flow to hands. This can be done by doing an arterial doppler study of forearms.
In addition, we also need to exclude an entrapment neuropathy, such as
carpal tunnel syndrome, which can be done by doing a
nerve conduction studies.
I hope it helps.
Please get back if you require any additional information.
Best wishes,
