A member asked:

Why might it be that my arms and hands go numb and tingle when ever i lay down?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Postural compression: Some considerations include pinching at the wrist or elbow, but maybe more proximal issue such as thoracic outlet syndrome. Might consider median compression at wrist, ulnar at elbow. Likely, this is currently rather mild, but if becoming progressively troublesome, have your doctor look at it.
