What Could Sudden Numbing And Tingling Of Limbs Causing Immobility Indicate?

I came home from a 30-45min bicycle ride a few hrs ago. While driving home i noticed some tingling in my arms then my fingers closed shut and i couldn t open my hands. Getting out of the car i could barely walk to the house almost like my legs were asleep but wouldn t move at all.

Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello,

It is important consulting with a neurologist for a physical exam. It could be just related to dehydration or a prolonged sitting position. But I would recommend performing nerve conduction studies and a cervical spine X-ray study, just to be sure that everything is OK.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
