Suggest Treatment For Numbness In The Arm

I have had elbow pain for about a week now. It feels like I hit my funny bone and it is causing my left arm to feel numb and it also tingles. It does not matter if I am using my arm or just resting, there is a constant throbbing. and no, I did not hurt my arm.

Hello,
Thanks for your query.
Numbness in the arm could be due to a nerve root irritation in the cervical spine. To exactly diagnose this problem, you need a MRI scan. Momentarily, take daily supplementation of Vit B2,B6 & B12 to suppress the symptoms of tingling in the arm
