Left Side Of Head Went Numb, Also Fingers On Right Side Went Numb And White. Causes ?
Today at work I was standing in a cold breezy atmosphere doing my job, my head felt kind of funny (not on the inside but the outside and only on the left side of my scalp, it went completely numb and at the same time on my right side my index finger and the following two fingers went completely numb and turned white, it all went away though it took about and hour I guess to get all the feeling back.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The sudden exposure to a cold wind can affect your nerves and can cause such a numbing effect. Avoid such exposures to cold and start taking methylcobalamin supplements.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
