Suggest Treatment For Severe Numbness On The Hand

Hi there, My hand got caught in a door which was very minor. It didn t hurt very much at all but left my hand numb. A doctor said it may just be a pinched nerve and should heal in a couple days. I m just worried because it hasn t yet and it s been a few days. Could it be more serious?

dear friend
it is in all probability not very serious an issue, the doctor has examined you and has found nothing alarming that's why he/she has come to that conclusion.
Please have faith and trust and wait for the condition to resolve.
Still if it persists, then there will be a reason to investigate further which i am sure you doctor will advise correctly or else you can ask for our suggestion at HCM.
