• Numbness in hands or fingers is one of the most
  common complaints among people with neuropathy.
  It can happen due to many reasons, including
  diabetes, nerve disorders, exposure to cold and
  pressure, injury or trauma. However, it is
  important to note that numbness in hands can also
  be a symptom of other conditions and not just
  neuropathy. Numbness in hands can also be a
  symptom of some other disorders like carpal
  tunnel syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, cancer and
  peripheral vascular disease.
• What are the symptoms?
• Symptoms of numbness in hands or fingers can
  include

If numbness in your hands has been caused by
nerve damage, then the best way to treat it is to
have surgery on the nerves. Nerve surgery aims at
fixing the damaged nerves and restoring a normal
functioning of those nerves. If you have just
experienced a minor injury or are not sure
whether your numbness in hands needs treatment or
not, then it would be best if you could consult a
doctor.
