Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

I have studied your case .
Due to compression of nerve root there can be tingling numbness in your arm and pain.
I will advise you to MRI cervical spine for better diagnosis.
Another possibility of vascular obstruction to arm, for this clinical examination may be required.

For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started.
Till time, avoid lifting weights. You can consult physiotherapist for help.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief.
I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
