Doctor Jo, good day. I just subscribed to your channel. Thank you for filming all the videos and tips on various physical problems. What I want to ask is, can you do actual stretching and exercises, such as each specific stretching and exercise, say 30 seconds x 3 times so we can follow immediately after listening to your lecture?

[@AskDoctorJo]

Thanks. Yes, I have many realtime videos you can follow along to. You can find them at: kzbin.info

This is awesome. I ride a motorcycle as a daily driver, and generally around 20 minutes in my hand (especially right throttle hand) fingers go numb. Left does too but not as bad. I'm 40 and grew up as computers entered the home. It can get scary at 70 miles an hour on the freeway.

[@84dannyyu]

Are these exercises effective for people contouring for hours?

[@jdmlegends3009]

Thanks Dr. Jo. I'm not sure what I did, but I've been feeling the numbness, tingling and pins and needles in the fingers of my left hand. In between the fingers it almost feels like sandpaper rubbing against my skin. These stretching exercises helped relieve some of the symptoms but they still persist. I also have a weakness in my neck muscles, so they may be related.

You're welcome.

[@BeastyBundy]

Did you ever find out what your issue is? I’m having similars issues right now

[@jdmlegends3009]

@@BeastyBundy I probably had a bad strain. The symptoms have subsided after getting a lot of rest. I would avoid any repetitive motion and continue to rest it. If the symptoms persist, ask your doctor to put in a consult for a CT Scan to see if you have signs of carpal tunnel syndrome.

Thanks! If you are waking up with numbness and tingling, it might be worth wearing at night, but I am not a big fan of wearing them all day. Maybe just during times when you feel it the most if you want to try one.
