Pins & Needles

[Jonesboy]

Hi,
I have pins and needles sensations primarily down my left side in my hand (thumb, index and palm) also in my lower and upper arm. I constantly feel cold with both hands and feet cold to touch. In addition I have a sore neck each morning when I awake which later relents. The pins and needles sometimes go away but are there each morning.

This started some 6 weeks, when I sit crossed leg for a short while the pins and needles immediately start in my legs and feet. Is this poor circulation, nerve damage or other?

Can you please advice, should you need more info please let me know.

Thanks,

That's your problem Tennis Elbow!!

I omitted to mention that I currently suffer from Tennis Elbow on my left arm. Could the pinched nerve potentially be linked?
The pain seems to eminate from my shoulder through to my neck and then down my arm.

Thanks for the help.

sounds like pinched nerve. Are you on any meds? It's not good to sit with your legs crossed!
The "pins and needles sensations primarily down my left side in my hand (thumb, index and palm) also in my lower and upper arm" is it better when you don't bend your elbow and keep your arm straight? I suggest you see a neurologist.
