Suggest Treatment For Burning Sensation And Tingling Sensation In The Arm
hi, my husband has been working an office job for over 25 years and now is doing labour work. Ever since he started about 3 months ago, he has been feeling a sensation of burning and tingling in his hands and arms. He may think this may be carpil tunel. It keeps him awake at night.

Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Your husband's problem can be due to carpal tunnel syndrome. In such case splinting the hands straight will be helpful. Also avoid hands getting cold. Keep warm. Better to check his vitamin b12 levels and if it is low taking it will be helpful also. Giving massage is also good. If there is no improvement then consult an orthopaedic surgeon. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
