Hello. Throughout the day, I feel a slight tingling sensation mainly in the palm of my left hand. The day before I trained at the gym (admittedly the bottom of the body, but the top is still engaged). What could be the cause? What is the best place to start with a diagnosis?

A tingling sensation in the hand can have various causes, and as an outsider, I am not able to give a definite answer based on such a brief description. I can only give you general information:
1. Muscle overload: Intense training can lead to muscle overload, which can sometimes affect the nerves and cause tingling. In such a case, such an event should be episodic and temporary.
2. Circulatory problems: Changes in blood flow, especially if there has been intense exercise, can affect tingling sensations.
3. Nerve problems: It is possible that the workout has caused a slight irritation to the nerves, which manifests itself as tingling.
4. Back problems: Back problems, such as nerve compression, can also cause tingling in the hands.
5. Carpal tunnel syndrome: This condition can cause tingling in the hands, especially if you have previously made repetitive hand movements.
6. Vitamin or electrolyte deficiency: Deficiencies can affect nerve function.
Please observe the situation, if the tingling persists or intensifies, I encourage you to consult your doctor. Your doctor can perform a thorough evaluation and, if necessary, order additional diagnostic tests to determine the cause of the tingling and recommend appropriate treatment.
