If : If a patient experiences numbness and weakness, then they need to consult a physician to ensure that they aren't having a serious condition. Please consult a physician for your symptoms. Any weakness or numbness must be taken seriously.

Many possibilities: This suggests "Thoracic Outlet Syndrome," meaning veins, nerves and arteries are trapped between first rib and collarbone. Squeezing of vein at this point can make veins in the arm bulge as described, and squeezing of nerve can make things numb. Other ideas: blood clots in veins might cause the bulging, & stroke, pinched nerves or TIA could cause numbness. Please see a Doctor, esp vascular surgeon
