Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i fell asleep on my side last night. I woke up and my pinky and ring finger felt "asleep". Well it usually only takes a few minutes for that to go away...it's been almost 2hrs now and it's still numb. I have ROM and grip strength. I'm a 35/white/m. Overweight, diabetes type 2 (diet/exercise control) and overweight. I feel fine other than the numbness. No dizziness or numbness elsewhere. No, this is not a normal occurance and no I didn't take any medications, or am on any.
