Home Remedies for Numbness in Hands and Feet

1. Warm Compress

The first thing you need to do is apply a warm compress on the affected area. It will help increase blood supply to the numb area. Moreover, it will relax the muscles and nerves in the area.

• Dip a washcloth in warm water.
• Wring out the excess, then place it on the affected area for 5 to 7 minutes.
• Repeat several times until the numbness is gone.

You can also enjoy a warm shower or use a heating pad to alleviate discomfort.

2. Massage

Massaging your hands and feet when numbness occurs is another easy way to deal with this problem. It increases blood circulation, which in turn lessens numbness. Moreover, it helps stimulate the nerves and muscles, thereby improving their overall functioning.

• Put some warm olive, coconut or mustard oil on your palm.
• Apply it on the numb area.
• Massage in circular motions with firm fingers for at least 5 minutes.
• Repeat as needed.
