tingling and numbness in right arm

by Pasfam05, Sep 23, 2008 01:42PM
In the last week or so I have been feeling a tingling in my right arm  and hand. No pain. I can feel tingling from my shoulder to my  elbow to my hand and slight numbness from my elblow down. Is this a cause to be concerned about?
Thanks

Hello. Are you having any other symptoms besides numbness and tingling? I think you should contact your healthcare provider immediately. There are many possible causes as to why you are feeling tingling and numbness. There could be a malfunction in nerves transmission, could be due to diabetes, electrolyte imbalances, hormonal imbalances, or some type of neurological problems. It's better to go to your doctor so they can help you rather than wait any longer and hope that it will go away.

Sounds like my symptoms in mid-late 2007. Are you and active individual that might be experiencing some stress symptoms in the past year? Check out my posts in late 2007 where I reported on my visit with my neurologist. I think you might find it helpful if you are as I described above. Cheers,
