My husband is 45 years old he has hypertension and arm numbness. is that sign of something bad?

Could be: He does have a number of risk factors for heart disease (sex, age, hbp), but he likely has a nerve entrapment issue in his neck. Either way, he should seek care if his symptoms don't improve. Hope he feels better soon!
