So I have had no work over the past few days and have lost feeling in the pad of my pointer finger on my right hand from playing Xbox non stop…(insert roaring laughter here). Anyone have this happen? It doesn’t bother me…just feels weird. But is this cause to go see a doctor or should I wait it out? I don’t have numbness anywhere else in any part of me (insert another laugh here). I’m guessing at some point someone has had this happen since we have quite a few gamers here. Any input from experience/knowledge/random commentary would be awesome. Thanks all. ---

i would just play less video games, but i’m not the smartest when it comes to pain and doctors, i absolutely destroyed my knee flying kicking out a window to the point where i couldn’t walk for half the next day (could only walk that night prob due to my intoxication level) and just stayed in bed instead of doing anything about it. ---

:rofl Less games duded. Has never happened to me and I consider myself to be a pretty avid gamer (play about 2-3hrs a night most nights). Although, I haven’t played much in the last month since I got the new XBox because I don’t have many games for it yet (sold my modded one with like 40 games to JohnnyK). ---

Yes game cube was my last system before 360…I would think it is cut blood flow but that doesn’t make sense because I still have feeling on the tip and top of my finger. Its literally just the pad of my finger that lost feeling. ---
