How To Treat Tingling And Partial Numbness In Right Limb?

Hi, I have had tingling and partial numbness in my fingers of R hand for about 1 week, now has extended to entire R arm. Possible pinched nerve? Had some pain in back (typical for me due to ongoing back issues, slightly more than usual) now decreased, but numbness, tingling in limb remains.

hi
It is quite possible to have a pinched nerve in your neck, going by the description.
I suggest MRI of the neck to confirm the diagnosis.
Start pain killers , muscle relaxants , pregabalin and physiotherapy in the meantime.
