I'm sorry to hear about the tingling and numbness you're experiencing from wearing your Apple Watch.


While I don't have real-time access to current news or updates, I can suggest some general tips that may help alleviate the issue:

  1. Adjust the Fit: Make sure the Apple Watch is not too tight on your wrist. It should be snug but not constricting.
  2. Take Breaks: Try taking breaks from wearing the watch to give your wrist some rest.
  3. Check for Allergies: Some people may be sensitive to certain materials used in the watch band. Consider switching to a different band material to see if it makes a difference.
  4. Consult a Healthcare Professional: If the tingling and numbness persist, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and advice.


As for any specific responses or solutions from Apple regarding this issue, I recommend reaching out to Apple Support directly for the most up-to-date information and guidance.
