My hands and arms feel uncomfortable and painful when i wear long sleeves. my sleeves aren't too tight but it feels like my circulation is cut off.why?

See doctor: Most people don't have the feeling that their circulation is cut off when wearing long sleeves. So, if you're having the sensation, you need to see your doctor, so they can check your circulation in your arms while wearing a longsleeved blouse. This will give better clues as to what might be causing this feeling, or if you have a medical condition that may be brewing. This needs further work up.
