Waking up with numbness or tingling in your hands is common and usually not a cause for concern. According to the Mayo Clinic, this sensation, often described as pins-and-needles, isn’t typically linked to serious conditions like strokes.

**Common Causes:**

1. **Sleeping Position** – If you sleep with your hands under your body, it can compress nerves, leading to temporary numbness.
2. **Repetitive Movements** – Activities like typing or using tools can lead to nerve compression, like in carpal tunnel syndrome.
3. **Vitamin B12 Deficiency** – Common in vegans and vegetarians, a lack of B12 can cause tingling in hands and feet.
4. **Electrolyte Imbalance** – Low calcium, potassium, or sodium levels (often due to dehydration) can disrupt nerve signals.
5. **Diabetic Neuropathy** – Long-term high blood sugar can damage peripheral nerves, causing numbness and tingling.
6. **Other Conditions** – Nerve compression from a herniated disc, autoimmune disorders, poor circulation, or even ganglion cysts.

If the numbness or tingling persists, consult a doctor, as it could indicate nerve damage or an underlying health issue.
