    There’s gotta be some partial decrease in circulation, though, given that my fingers on the numb hand are usually colder than my non-numb hand when this sometimes happens to me.

      Maybe a bit, but there would have to be a ton of pressure. Consider the fact we have to use a tourniquet to cut blood flow typically, and those hurt like hell.

      Maybe. Could be the compressed nerve reduces vasodilation in your fingers. Could be that your finger only feels cold.
