Tingling in left hand

I had rotator cuff surgery on my left shoulder about 4 years ago.  For about the past 6 weeks when I stand my left hand tingles.  My arm aches at the top.  Could this be caused from the shoulder?  Should I be concerned? I would appreciate any help I can get.  Thank you

Hello.

It is difficult to say the problem is due to the surgery.  A clinical examination is needed. And the surgery was four years back. Your symptoms are only six weeks old. I think there is some other cause behind it.

I would recommend that you should consult the doctor who did the surgery. He will know what's inside your shoulder.
