damage in the fingers, hands, and joints of
people prone to circulation disorders or ab-
normal swellings. Prolonged use in cold

age in otherwise healthy people. If symptoms
occur such as numbness, pain, loss of
strength, change in skin coior or texture, or
loss of feeling in the fingers, hands, or joints,
discontinue the use of this tool and seek med-
