Hand numbness for a day is what happened

Numbness and discomfort in the hands may be due to nerve root compression caused by cervical spondylosis disc herniation or peripheral nerve entrapment, such as elbow tunnel syndrome and carpal tunnel syndrome. You can consider going to the orthopedic department of the hospital in time to see a doctor, who will make a preliminary judgment with physical examination. If cervical spondylosis is considered to be the cause of nerve compression, an MRI of the cervical spine can be improved. If it is considered to be peripheral nerve compression, electromyography examination can help determine the condition, and then do the corresponding treatment according to the examination results. If the hand numbness is caused by cervical spondylosis, methylcobalamin can be used to nourish the nerve, in addition to traction and physiotherapy. Severe compression requires consideration of surgical treatment, such as minimally invasive intervertebral foraminoscopic nucleus pulposus removal. In the case of peripheral nerve compression, most of them require surgery to completely release the compression, and postoperative treatment with nerve nutrition, such as methylcobalamin, can help recovery.
