Brief Answer:
Carpal tunnel syndrome to consider.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to "Ask a Doctor " service.

I have read your query and here is my advice.

Numbness and tingling in the index finger may be a sign of early stages of carpal tunnel syndrome.

In other words, a part of median nerve may be compressed at the wrist.

It is a condition assessed easily clinically, so discuss with your primary care Doctor for your issues.

Hope you found the answer helpful.
