To help avoid this condition, take frequent breaks of at least 10 minutes per hour, keep hands and body warm, avoid using a tight hand grasp, and maintain neutral postures of wrist, elbow, and shoulder. If you feel numbing and/or tingling in your fingers or if your fingers appear to be a pale or ashen color, consult a qualified health professional.
