Divers' palsy, also known as "divers' paralysis," is a condition that affects scuba divers as a result of prolonged exposure to cold temperatures. The condition is characterized by numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hands or feet, and can be both painful and inconvenient for those affected. Other synonyms for divers' palsy include "diver's hand," "diver's foot," and "decompression sickness." Treatment for the condition typically involves warming the affected area and getting plenty of rest, but severe cases may require medical attention. Divers should always take precautions to protect themselves from the effects of cold water and avoid prolonged exposure whenever possible.
