Finger Tip Numbness Followed By Flaky, Peeling Skin Posted: 10-28-03 02:44am
Has anyone had the following problem:
right hand (or left hand): finger tip (the
entire end section of the finger) becomes
numb. However, you still have feeling in
it. The general feeling can best be
described like the sensation you get when
your finger gets a coating of elmer's glue
on it. And when you bend it, it feels
stiff.
Then tingling sets in.
And then a few days to a week later, the
skin begins peeling off. First in small
amounts and then all at once. A few days
later, your finger looks just like new.
Several months go by and then the cycle
starts all over. Only this time on a
different finger...Same hand.
