It most probably is due to peripheral neuropathy involving radial nerve. Keep your blood sugar controlled and may take tab. B1b6b12 daily. If no relief then consult a neurologist.

Dear lybrate-user as I can see you are suffering from diabetic and hypertension, the symptoms you have mentioned my be due to diabetes also and many other cause too.

Mr Pankaj, Thanks for the query. I have seen the query. As you have mentioned about diabetes, it is necessary to know whether it is in good control. Because in improperly controlled diabetes peripheral neuropathy is quite common. Please let me know if you have tingling and numbness or burning sensation in your feet or soles? Peripheral neuropathy also is likely to reduce sensation too. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain a strict glucose control with FBG < 100 mg, PP 150 to 170 mg & HbA1c% <6.5%. Thanks.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. One of the most common causes of tingling fingers is carpal tunnel syndrome, which occurs when the median nerve is compressed in the wrist area. The first fingers to be affected by carpal tunnel are usually the thumb and index finger; the pinky is never affected in carpal tunnel. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
