A member asked:
I get a tingling sensation in my right upper limb whenever i rest my hand on the medial side of my elbow. what is it due to?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
probable ulnar pinch: Ulnar nerve crosses behind the medial side of elbow bone. When you rest your elbow on a surface you probably compress the nerve and feel tingling.
