Dr. Falah Bachour Orthopedic Surgery
Before considering the cause of hard work etc... You must rule out other causes such as:
-Peripheric cause by local compression of the median nerve when it goes through the carpal tunnel at the wrist level or
-Central cause from the cervical spine (bulge disc or arthritis...)
Clinical and paraclinical exams can help to explain the origin of these numbness : Electromyogram of upper limbs and/or Cervical spine Xray and MRI
