Guest guest Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 according to the reflexology chart at http://www.reflexology-research.com/handchart.html (I hope that it is ok to post this site even though you can buy the chart) the thumb is related to the pituitary and thyroid in those regions. Is this a possiblity that she may have a pituitary or thyroid problem? Marisa Domestic Engineer and Mother of 2 God put Adam and Eve in a Garden NOT a Pharmacy! Janet [ebbs]Wednesday, December 08, 2004 4:49 PMherbal remedies Subject: Herbal Remedies - NUMBNESS Would anyone know what would cause a 22-yr old to have about 75% numbness on her left thumb, from the knuckle to the end; and a few weeks before that, on her right big toe (on the outside edge of it)? She noticed the thumb numbness after drawing a picture with some pressure for a while, and the toe thing was when she was sitting on the floor. But the toe has not gone back to total normalcy since it happened. The thumb just happened about two days ago, and still the same. Thanks for any thoughts on this.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 Marisa - Thanks for the link! I have wondered about her thyroid in the past when she would complain of cold hands and feet sometimes. When I asked her about this, she said they have been fine lately. But that could be the underlying reason, along with the stress of college, that brought out the numbness. Thanks for your thoughts!
