Numbness Of Hands, Itchy Rashes, Lost Strength Of Hands. Taken Aspirin. Natural Remedies?
I took heart medications for a year but stopped because my hands were numb most of the time, had a itchy rash on my leg, then on my arm and then my right ankle, was losing the strength in my hands, and arms. Are there natural remedies I could use instead of drugs. Even aspirin gives me a rash now so I do not take any drugs.

Hello, Gentle massage of the fingers and hands to improve blood circulation. Massaging the fingers when immersed in a bowl of warm water is an effective way of reducing numbness
Regular exercise to improve circulation to the extremities and increase the supply of oxygen to all the cells of the body
Keep the fingers and hands elevated to promote blood circulation
Apply a warm or cold compress to reduce burning or tingling
Remedies such as breathing exercises and meditation may also help reduce stress-related symptoms such as numbness and tingling
Change your diet and remove inflammatory foods such as citrus fruits, dairy products and wheat that may aggravate the condition. Simultaneously increase your intake of potassium and calcium-rich foods such as bananas and avocados and green leafy vegetables
Stop smoking and drinking alcohol as this can exacerbate nerve damage.
Protect yourself from the cold and extreme weather conditions
Vitamin B12 is important in the maintenance of health and normal functioning of the nerve tissue and deficiency of it can lead to numbness.
Regards.
