What Causes Numbness In The Hands While Suffering From Osteoarthritis?
Hello, I have osteoarthritis but recently I ve been waking up with no feeling in my hands at all. It takes at least 5 minutes to regain any feeling. Once the tingling starts I get feeling back. However, there is a feeling of slight numbness periodically through out the day.
