Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The numbness in the arm seem to be related to a nerve damage.
I suggest to do some examinations for further evaluation.
I recommend to do:
-a nerve conduction study
-an electromyography (EMG)
I also suggest to consult a neurologist and get evaluated.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
