A member asked:

I have arm numbness and tingling in my left arm but also sometimes my right arm. my hand also feels like it wants to cripple up. im only 26 years old.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Arm numbness: Numbness in the arms often occurs from sleeping with the arms bent or working in a job with a lot of repetition. Other frequent causes include spinal stenosis or compression of the spinal cord. Diabetes, low B12 levels, and low thyroid function are common causes too. A neurological evaluation and a nerve conduction test can identify the cause of the numbness.
