Hello
Tingling sensation in arms may be due to nerve involvement in cervical spine.
As you had history of trauma,it is important to screen cervical spine.
You may need cervical spine MRI.
MRI can detect disc prolapse,nerve involvement etc.
Proper treatment depend upon findings.
You need proper evaluation by a orthopedician.
Get well soon.
Take Care
