What Causes Numbness In Arm While Urinating?
Question: I have numbness in my arm while urinating as well as through out the day
Brief Answer:
Sounds like compression neuropathy
Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome to HCM.
It sounds to me like neuropathy due to nerve compression which can be at any level form spine to hand. It can happen due to degenerative spine changes or it can be carpal tunnel syndrome, thoracis outlet syndrome or something else. I dont think it is related to urination,it is more occuring when there is certain position of your hand and body. I suggest to see spine specialist and neurologist to rule out conditions I ve mentioned
WIsh you good health.
Regards
