These diseases may be the common symptoms of hand numbness, and some of them are quite serious.

At noon, everyone is used to taking a lunch break at their desks for an hour. They didn't sleep well, but they can relieve fatigue a little. After lunch break, they are preparing to stand up and wipe their faces. Suddenly, they found their hands numb, just like ants walking on their skin.

I believe that everyone has encountered this situation. It's no big problem, but you know what? Often hand numbness, the problem can be big or small, some caused by oppression, some caused by disease. If it happens frequently, I suggest you find the reason as soon as possible. This article lists the diseases that may cause hand numbness, so you may wish to check for yourself.

What diseases can frequent hand numbness cause?

One of the symptoms of hypokalemia is numbness in both hands, but at first it was not hands, but feet. First, the lower limbs felt weak and a little dizzy, and then the upper limbs suddenly became numb when they got up and walked. This situation generally appears in young people who are picky eaters for a long time. They are generally thin and eat irregularly.

People with long-term diarrhea and malnutrition will also be short of potassium, which will be excreted with urine and feces, resulting in hypokalemia.

When working outdoors in high temperature, a lot of sweat is lost, and potassium deficiency may occur if water is not replenished in time.

Due to the lack of understanding of the disease, many people will think of other diseases when they encounter numbness in their hands, and they cannot replenish potassium in time. I hope everyone will pay attention to it.

Everyone is familiar with cervical spondylosis, with a large number of patients. In the past, most of them were middle-aged and elderly people, but now they are mainly young people. When the cervical vertebra compresses the nerves that control the arm, there will be signs of numbness. In addition, there will be a feeling of soreness and stiffness, which will cause dizziness and muscle aches.

Although this disease is common, it should not be ignored. The problem can be big or small, and the serious consequences will lead to tinnitus and deafness, paralysis of lower limbs, and affect normal walking.

Cerebral infarction can also cause hand numbness, and the most serious thing is that it often happens suddenly, making people unable to respond. Sometimes, during sleep, not only hand numbness, but also half of the body, tongue and face may be numb, unable to speak normally, and the mouth is skewed.

If it is a cerebral infarction, the gold rescue time is only 4 hours. If thrombolysis is not timely, it will cause large-scale death of brain cells and tissues, leaving sequelae, and serious death, which must be taken seriously.

For patients with hypertension and diabetes, hand numbness should not be underestimated. These are all warnings from your body. Check them as soon as possible to avoid bad things.

Carpal tunnel syndrome can also cause hand numbness. Most of the patients are middle-aged women, who are engaged in manual labor, such as housewives, assembly line workers, cement bricklayers and so on. There are still one or two fingers numb and unable to exert themselves. If the wrist is often strained or injured by external force, the median nerve is compressed, and you can feel numb when you turn your wrist.

This situation can be alleviated by hand rehabilitation exercise, but it cannot be cured. If you want to solve it completely, you need a detailed examination, and you may need to cooperate with acupuncture and protective gear to achieve the therapeutic effect.

To sum up, the causes of hand numbness may be large or small, may disappear in a short time, or may last for a long time. If you are healthy, you should rule out cervical spondylosis, carpal tunnel syndrome, hypokalemia and other diseases. If it is a patient with three highs and chronic diseases, it is necessary to treat it carefully, and it is best to check it to prevent cerebral infarction.
