I have numb fingertips and pins and needles in my left arm ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Parasthesiae: These symptoms can be caused by carpal tunnel syndrome due to wrist ligaments pressing on nerves going to the hand. Forearm symptoms can also occur. Repetitive motions of the wrist cause the thickened wrist ligaments. Other less likely possibilities include nerve impingement at the neck or lesions of the right side of the brain cortex. I recommend consulting a hand surgeon or a neurologist.
