Question:
My thumb is getting poor circulation after I slept on it, what can I do?
About 3 days ago I woke up after having slept on my hand and I noticed that my thumb was getting poor circulation. I was hoping the problem would fix itself, but 3 days later and it is still getting poor blood circulation. I think its getting some blood as it isn't completely numb but it also feels partially numb. What can I do to maybe get the blood flowing again through it?
Also, if it comes to having to go to the doctor about the problem, what sort of doctor would be best for this kind of problem?
Answers:
Assuming you do not have neuropathy or gout.
Stick your thumb in your mouth and suck on it.
Sure you could massage it with your other hand, but your mouth and tongue does a better job.
