Why Am I Experiencing Tingling In Fingers And Hands?

i have been experiencing tingling in my fingers and hands the last few days. I don' t know whether it can be caused by the cold weather as I did get my hands very cold and wet about 10 days ago. However I am prediabetic and this tingling concerns me. Thank you for your time and advice.

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
Tingling sensation can be a symptom of peripheral neuropathy.
Diabetics and pre diabetics are more prone to develop this.
keep your blood sugar levels checked periodically.
Start taking tablet methylcobalamine.
This will give you relief.
Tingling sensation can also be a symptom in Hansen disease.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
