For the last few weeks, I’ve been waking up with numbness and tingling in my fingers, especially in one hand. It usually goes away after I move my hand for a few minutes. I sleep on my side most nights. Could my sleeping position be causing this?
Yes, sleeping position can temporarily compress nerves or reduce blood flow, causing numbness. Other causes include repetitive hand movements, wrist strain, or conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome. If numbness becomes frequent, lasts during the day, or is associated with weakness, consult your healthcare provider.
