Who Gets Finger Numbness?
Finger Numbness is very common during pregnancy. Some women experience fluid retention which can cause swelling at the joints and, at the knees and wrists. When the wrist swells, there is pressure on the Median Nerve which can reduce circulation to the fingers. Did you know an estimated 10 million people in the United States alone suffer from Raynaud’s Disease (a disorder of the blood vessels in the skin of the fingers) complain of finger tip numbness? That’s incredible! Hundreds of thousands of people suffering from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome also complain of numbness in their fingers. About 1 Million people in the United States suffer from a condition called Lupus. (Lupus is an autoimmune disease that is hard to diagnose with numb fingers being only one of the symptoms). People with Multiple Sclerosis often complain about numb fingers. Some customers have regained sensitivity to the fingers by wearing Prolotex FULL FINGER Therapy Gloves on a regular basis.
