What Causes Tingling In Arm?

My husband has been having a tingling in his right arm tat continues to grow gradually worse. He now says it is concentrating more in his wrist and feeling like an electric pulse is shooting through his hand. I believe it may be nerve damage...he is a construction worker. Any thoughts.

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

I have gone through your query.

You need to get xray of cervical spine in AP and Lateral and send me the reprot.

Nerves in neck region usually get compressed due to disc bulge etc so I want to see disc space and vertebral condition on xray.

Till the take 1 tab aceclofenac+thiocolchicoside three times a day and pregabalin at nigh by prescription of doctor.

I hope it helps.

Thanks.

Dr.Singh.
