You may be having right radial nerve palsy.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
I'm Dr. Sudhir Kumar,
After going through your query I concluded that you may be having sudden onset radial nerve palsy popularly called Saturday night palsy in your right arm because it has developed overnight, you are feeling tingling in your finger and you have weakness in triceps. It occurs due to continuous pressure on radial nerve in arm or axilla in deep sleep. It leads to paralysis, tingling sensation and decreased sensation in the area supplied by radial nerve. It is called Saturday night palsy because on Saturday night generally people party. After party they go to deep sleep on the chair with the arm hanging from the side of the chair pressuring the radial nerve. So it is common after Saturday night. It commonly recover by itself in a day or two but it can take to recover up to 3 weeks. Methyl cobalamine may be of help in speeding recovery. More detailed analysis can be done by nerve conduction study if recovery does not start and also to exclude other causes.
Hope I have answered your query.
If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
Wishing you good health.
Take care.
