Postpartum carpal tunnel

I've been experiencing numbness in my right hand on and off for the last couple of weeks. Mainly my fingertips but occasionally full fingers. Is anyone else experiencing the same? Any tips for relieving it? Thanks!

I had carpal tunnel all throughout my pregnancy and had to use compression gloves and splints, particularly when sleeping or doing any repetitive tasks (e.g. typing/eating) and also drinking lots of fluids

Hey, I had the same during my 3rd trimester and it stopped around 3-4 weeks postpartum. Maybe speak with your GP if it’s been longer.
