What Causes Pain In Thumb And Arm Tingling When Diagnosed With Diabetes?
I am an overweight 69 year old female. I get a physical every year and have been tested for diabetes and the tests were not positive. Within the last 30 days my right thumb, where it connects to the palm of my hand, is very tender and painful at the joint. Recently my arms have started to tingle. I have not been bitten, strained or sprained my hand or arm in any way. Over the past couple of weeks, both of my arms have begun to tingle. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
