Q: had a standard blood test from arm other day and she went into a nerve, now i have tingling down my arm. should it heal?

: Most of these nerve complications are minor irritations or superficial trauma, and do not involve frank lacerations. If so, the symptoms should readily resolve over next 3-4 weeks at most. If longer persistence, an EMG study might be needed.
