Why do hands get an itchy/tingly sensation when doing something with high vibrations like weed whacking?

Answer 1

Pretty much you’ll have a tendency to clench harder which ever tool is vibrating, your nerves won’t like it and it’ll cause stiffness and inflammation in your hands/wrists/forearms thus putting pressure onto your nerves. From your neck to your hands you have 5 nerves, easily distinguishable depending on which finger goes tingly or numb. But also wear anti vibration gloves to prevent long term damage because you really don’t want to deal with nerve pain/damage.
