Question
I wake up in the morning and feel numbness in the tips of my right middle and ring fingers. It disappears after some movement. This has been going on for several days. Doctors, is this a problem? Could it be a sign of heart issues?
Answer
Numbness in the fingers upon waking up may be due to poor circulation of Qi and blood, and it is necessary to check for cervical abnormalities or heart problems. Additionally, it may be related to rheumatism, so it is important to pay attention to daily activities, exercise more, keep warm, ensure adequate sleep, and avoid overtime work and staying up late. Methods such as massage and acupuncture may help treat cervical issues.
