Left shoulder and arm pain with hand and finger numbness can't raise arm above shoulder?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Rotator cuff: If you can't move the arm above the shoulder you probably have a rotator cuff syndrome and if you have numbness and tingling you have nerve compression- these two may or may not be related. You should see your pcp or orthopedics.

Had a left shoulder injury in late 2019 which resolved over a couple days. However, since then I've had a mild tingle sensation down my left mid arm towards my pinky finger when I shrug my shoulders. I have no pain or numbness should I be concerned?
