Kapanlagi.com - Almost everyone has experienced numbness. Usually, the way most people overcome numbness is by tapping the numb area. This phenomenon often occurs if you sit cross-legged for a long time and often causes discomfort. Numbness itself is a sensation like being pricked by a needle or numbness in any part of the body. However, numbness often occurs in the hands, feet, and head. Although temporary, it sometimes interferes with some activities.
Numbness or paresthesia is divided into two types, namely temporary numbness and prolonged numbness. Temporary numbness occurs due to pressure on certain nerves. For example, if you sleep with your arm pressed, temporary numbness will occur and disappear on its own when there is no more pressure.
On the other hand, prolonged numbness can be caused by certain disease symptoms. For example, diabetes. As explained earlier, numbness is actually a normal phenomenon. However, there are many easy ways to overcome numbness. Instead of being curious, let's directly see the complete review below.
