Tingling hands

[Dobermanndale]

Does anyine else suffer with tingling in the hands when using the hair drier or other electrical items that vibrate?

Thanks

I have this permanently in both hands and most if my left hand side, it's quite feirce at times and is caused by vasculitis, one of the symptoms of my lupus SLE. Gradually got worse over the past year and I'm told may never go away although the immune suppression drugs I've started may help. Not sure if you have the same but worth checking.

Yes unfortunately I have the same thing. I used to use flippers to shave my husband's head, but the tingling just got worse. Seems to be any electrical item. Hope you find a solution.

Yes I get this all the time. I have chronic peripheral neuropathy and raynaulds among other things. The GP prescribed Pregabalin for neuropathy and Nifedipine for raynaulds which help with the tingling generally but it still gets worse if I use electrical equipment. I have carpal tunnel as well and that doesn't help either. It's really irritating, so I would advise you to talk to your doctor about it as they can prescribe meds that may help.

Hi there. This is a "me too" post. It is very annoying but I haven't found anything that helps yet I'm afraid. Definitely worth running past your GP.

I used to have this symptom but carpal tunnel surgery stopped it.

I have pins and needles in both hands and right foot I'm not sure its the same as yours but I'm going in for a operation they say it is a nerve between the elbow and wrist I have had both carpal tunnel done
