What Causes Pain, Numbness And Weakness In The Arms?
Hello, I am a limo driver and now for the last 3 weeks, I m have a lot of pain, numbness,weakness in right arm, without hurting it.....I drop things, I ve tried ice, heat, I take Percocet as needed for cluster migraines, not even helping. It sometimes feels like when you hit your funny bone but with pain from should to fingers on surface of arm, any suggestions?

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to radicular nerve pain or a nerve compression. For this reason, I would recommend consulting with a neurologist for a careful physical exam, a cervical spine x-ray study and a nerve conduction study. A cervical spine CT scan or MRI may be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka
