Here are smart steps you can take today to protect your hands tomorrow:

 

✅ Improve Posture

Avoid hunching over your phone or laptop — keep wrists neutral and spine straight.

✅ Take Breaks

Use the 20–20–20 rule : every 20 minutes, move your body and shake out your hands.

✅ Stretch Your Wrists

Gentle yoga or stretches can relieve pressure on nerves.

✅ Keep Hands Warm

Cold hands = tighter blood vessels = less circulation.

✅ Watch Your Pillows

Switch to a pillow that supports your neck and shoulders — avoid sleeping on your arms.

✅ Check Your Diet

Add foods rich in B12, folate, and omega-3s to support nerve health.
