Tingling sensation in my left arm?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Try moving: Most commonly in your age group, paresthesia in the arm is due to a positional and temporary nerve compression which resolves with movement. Is this true for you?

Dr Del Valle and another doctor agreed

See a neurologist: If symptoms have persisted for weeks or more then see a neurologist for probable pinched nerve. Emg will be warranted.
