Suggest Remedy For Numbness In Hands

My 7 year old daughter has started doing repetive movements of her hands, holds them in fists, and says they feel numb. She tries to eat and dress herself with her hands in fists. She is also double jointed and has flat feet. Genetic history is unknown in this child. No hx of disease. Has a nevous sebaceous on her head. Any ideas?
