Many population have experienced the symptoms of dullness in the hands and fingers. The normal symptoms are described as pins and needles and most population recite it as if their fingers or hands have gone to sleep. This normally occurs during sleeping, after sitting for prolonged periods, or when someone holds their hand above their head during activities such as changing a light bulb. Most population will self diagnose themselves with whether carpal tunnel syndrome or with something much more dire. But for most people, neither assumption is true.
If you look at the anatomy of our hands you will observation that all the nerves and blood vessels come from additional up. They don't start at your hand and end at your hand. They no ifs ands or buts start at your neck and end up in the tips of your fingers. They must trip straight through your shoulder, below your pectoral muscles, straight through your elbow, underneath your forearm muscles, straight through the 8 bones in your wrist and then into each one of your fingers. That's a long way to travel. It also presents numerous opportunities for an obstruction to occur.
Think of the nerves and blood supply in your arms as being a river. And think of your neck as being the reservoir. Now, normally the river runs from the reservoir out to the surrounding areas(your fingers). However, sometimes a tree falls over the river and prevents most of the water from running down the river. So the areas at the end of the river(your fingers) don't get much water(nerve and blood supply). At this point most population observation that they have numb or tingly fingers and conclude that they have a hand or wrist problem. But most of the time the problem lies with the tree that fell over the river, not with the areas downstream. Let me explain.
There are numerous places that the nerves and blood supply that go to your fingers can become restricted. These places are your neck, shoulder, pectoral muscles, elbow, forearm, 8 bones of the wrist, or the muscles of your hand. Therefore, you should never assume that your problem is in your hand just because you feel symptoms in your hand. To get the best diagnosis for your tingly hands you must find someone who will scrutinize all the areas between your neck and fingers.
One of the most tasteless places for a restriction is in your neck and pectoral muscles. This is because most population sit at a desk for a living. This causes us to roll our shoulders transmit and stick our heads out, normally to see a computer. When our shoulders roll transmit our pectoral muscles shorten and eventually become extremely tight. This then presses on the nerves and blood supply that run directly underneath your pectoral muscles. If these muscles get tight sufficient we start to feel numb or tingly hands. Stretching of the pectoral muscles can normally preclude this problem. As I've stated in other articles, you must hold the stretch for 3 minutes for this to work.
Even though one of the most tasteless sites for a restriction is your pectoral muscles there are many other places where you may have issues. I urge your to have a noteworthy practitioner look at your entire arm for restrictions. Since your wrist has 8 dissimilar bones you should have a chiropractor make sure that each one is attractive properly. If there is a bone that isn't attractive correctly it can put pressure on a nerve and give you carpal tunnel syndrome. A chiropractor can make sure that the muscles and bones of your arm are attractive properly and allowing the nerves and blood vessels to flow freely.
