Does your #NeckPain cause #ArmTingling or #HandNumbness? Get a #PinchedNerve in your neck checked if your grip is weakening, you drop things, the numbness never goes away, or both hands feel clumsy and your #balance is changing. Full video: https://t.co/cCMm1ju2RK

Team Achiness, this one is for you. If #arthritis makes your #HandsAche and stiff, keep them moving. Make a soft fist, open wide, then touch your thumb to each fingertip. 10 slow reps, once or twice a day. Full video: https://t.co/cCMm1ju2RK

#ArmTingling or #HandNumbness? It might be your neck. Try the hand-on-head test. Sit tall and rest your hand on top of your head for 30 seconds. If your arm symptoms ease, that can point to a #PinchedNerve in your neck. Full video: https://t.co/u4UyMRAfu9

Tingling or #NumbFingers? Try the #WristBend test. Put the backs of your hands together, fingers pointing down, and hold for up to a minute. #Tingling in your thumb, index, and middle fingers can point to #CarpalTunnel syndrome.

Wake up with a #neck #headache? Try the Pillow Nod before you get up. Lie on your back, make a tiny “yes” nod, hold 5 seconds, and repeat 10 times. If the front of your neck pops out like cables, you’re working too hard. Full video: https://t.co/38F77nwBCv

Waking up with a #MorningHeadache on both sides? Your #breathing may be the cause. Loud #snoring, gasping at night, dry mouth, and daytime fatigue can be signs of #SleepApnea. This one isn’t a neck problem, so talk to your family doctor. Full video: https://t.co/38F77nwBCv

Waking up with a #headache at your #temples? Your jaw may be the cause. #JawClenching or #TeethGrinding at night can leave you with temple pain, a tired jaw, and sensitive teeth. Try this: touch your temples and clench. Feel that muscle?

Ring finger, pinky or whole arm numb at night? 💪 Keep your elbows straighter and your arms below shoulder height while you sleep. A towel wrapped loosely around your elbow helps stop it from bending all the way.

Thumb, index and middle fingers #numb at night? 🖐️ Keep your wrists straight while you sleep. A night #WristSplint from the pharmacy can hold your wrist in a neutral position, or hug a pillow so your hands rest flat instead of curling up. Full video: https://t.co/Fv2C2czh1v
