Hi Dr Marius,
I have a new and intermittent tingling in right hand and thumb. The sensation travels up my arm and to neck on occasion. I am finding it hard to sleep but I am not in pain but I feel an unpleasant sensation that affects movement an wakes me up. Pushing my fingertips together in a stretch helps as does shaking the hand and wrist.
What do you recommend and please explain the consultation process and fees.
Kind regards
Sarah
Hola Dr. Marius,
Tengo un hormigueo nuevo e intermitente en la mano y el pulgar derechos. La sensación sube por mi brazo y hasta el cuello en ocasiones. Me cuesta dormir pero no tengo dolor, pero siento un malestar que afecta el movimiento y me despierta. Juntar las yemas de los dedos en un estiramiento ayuda al igual que sacudir la mano y la muñeca. Llevo una mano con una férula para la muñeca diseñada para mantener la muñeca recta.
¿Qué recomienda y explique el proceso de consulta y las tarifas?
Un cordial Saludo
Sarah
Dear Sarah
Thank you for your message. Tingling, numbness and loss of power are nerve related symptoms. You may have a compression neuropathy like carpal tunnel syndrome or a nerve root compression into your cervical spine.
A clinical examination may bring some information but sometimes further scans are necessary. I consult in Marbella at HC Hospital. An initial consultation fee is 215€
Many thanks
