Thanks. > >It sounds more like carpel tunnel syndrome to me,but I am no specialist.I would ask your doctor for a nerve conductor test in your hands.It can tell alot. Repetitive motion of the hands and wrists can cause that too,that will sometimes disappear.Also it can be what is called a ganglion,which are nerves that get in little balls in the hands.I had those a while back from when I was doing alot of lawn work...when I was well enough too,,,lol! You can see if you have a ganglion by pressing on the palms of your hands....you can feel a raised part on one or both hands.A chiropractor can fix that up within a visit or two. I hope this helps you. It can be many things,as we are at risk for circulatory disorders with IR and the PCOS,but,I would assume that it can be from repetitive motion...even though you may be only typing on the computer for a while...it can give you carpel tunnel syndrome.I used to also get that after I did alot of lifting,,the both hands would feel kinda tingly and strange.Sometimes,even from doing grocery shopping and holding parcels the wrong way,or the way you may be sleeping.
Do you have Scoliosis of the spine?My friend has that,and she has to
sleep with braces on her hands to keep them from going numb.Again,that
is another issue,that I assume you don't have.
>-- Hoping this gives you a little piece of mind...I do suggest that if it is bothering you for more than a week,that it requires attention.
Be well
