Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] My boyfriend had gotten a thorn in his hand earlier, then he tells me he couldn t feel his arm from his elbow down to his finger tips. He soaked it in hot water (not knowing what else to do) and thought that the hot water wasn t working because it was freezing when he put the injured arm in but he touched the water with his other hand and it was burning hot. Next, he started saying he was in A LOT of pain. At this point we havent done anything further and i am not sure what to do.
[|AI|]  Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. In this condition I will suggest going for contrast bath, you just need 2 buckets 1 with hot water and 1 with cold water. You can check temperature with your normal hand. Start with dipping the injured part into hot water for 3 minutes and then dip it in cold water for 1 minute, repeat it 3 times and stop the process with cold bucket. It will stimulate the nerve endings. This is a slow and natural process to stimulate the nerves. I hope you will do it with patience and hope, neural process takes time. Start on these and result will be seen in 2 to 3 months. Wish you good health.
