Why are my arms numb when i wake up each morning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Carpal tunnel : Most common cause is carpal tunnel syndrome which is a pinched or compressed median nerve at the wrist which supplies the thumb, index, middle, and half the fourth finger but can cause the arms to feel numb. When you sleep, the wrists often bend or flex making carpal tunnel syndrome worse. Your doctor can check it out.
