Peripheral neuropathy, it should get better pretty quickly. At least it did when I had mine 🤞

As Max says, peripheral neuropathy. First I hear of no feeling, it is usually a tingling sensation and more often in the feet in my experience. Can be avoided by cold therapy, sadly often not advised by Heath authorities. In my case, the tingling in balls of the feet is still with me after 10 years. But everyone reacts differently, hopefully you get the feeling back in your hands. Good luck.
