Tingling in Fingers and Nose

3 replies

I've booked a GP appointment but as it's not an emergency I won't be seen for 2/3 weeks and then probably have to wait a while for a referral potentially.

I'm more confused than worried as I can't really find anything online but a few weeks ago I started experiencing numbness/tingling in the tips of my thumb and first two fingers on both hands. I thought it might be the start of carpal tunnel as I do a lot of typing but then it started in the tip of my nose and a few times in my tongue. The fuzzy tongue has only happened a handful of times but the numbness in my fingers/nose is daily. The hands don't really bother me but it's worse in the shower like when your freezing and have a hot shower that sort of pain but the tiny vibrations in the tip of my nose is starting to bug me plus I'm constantly touching my nose so must look weird.

No recent facial injury. No previous drug use. Not on any prescription medication.

Any ideas? Maybe the two are not related and the hands just is carpal tunnel?

When I had this it turned out to be a B12 deficiency.

But don’t rush out any buy supplements as it will skew any blood test results.
