A member asked:
Both arms are having pins and needles while sleeping or sleeps ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pins and needles : Several things come to mind, nerve inflammation from the neck, compression of nerves around the neck, shoulder, elbow, wrist, or pectoralis muscles. Circulation issues can cause this but not as common as nerve issues. I am not providing you advice, because I can't evaluate you, but most of the time these issues get better with physical therapy and only after knowing what is the problem.
