I believe it could be Carpel Tunnel, I had the same problem years ago, I told my doctor and he said for me to hold my hands over my head for two minutes and they started to get numb then he told me that I had Carpel Tunnel.
I told him that I've been using my computer a lot; he told me that either it could be too low or to high, he said that your hands should be like an L shape for me to adjust my desk/computer.
Which I did and I also stayed away from the computer for a couple of months unless I really needed to be on it (emergency only)
Now everything is fine, it's been 5 years now.
I stayed away from the computer.

It could be too much salt. Drink two glasses of water and see if it gets better. If not, go see a doctor. The water will help dilute the salt.
That happened to me in Atlantic City. The food tasted great but I didn't realize they put so much salt in it. I don't cook with salt, this happened when I was in my 20s.

It sounds like carpal tunnel. Another thing it might be is RND (repetitive nerve disorder) has the same symptoms as carpal tunnel. Go to a Dr. have him refer you to an OT ( occupational Therapist ) so you can get the best diagnosis.

there are serveral causes for this,....one is a pinched nerve, back problems, arthritis, poor circulation, carpel tunnels, and diabeties...do you notice any leg pain, or back pain, headaches, or muscle weakness? That could indicate it's just a pinched nerve.

I had the same thing last year; it's just a pinched nerve your doctor should or will give you a shot to stop the prickling feeling it really works.

May be a pinched nerve. Have you had any
back or neck injury lately?
