What Can Cause Slight Numbness In The Arm?

Hi there. I'm a 17 y.o. male, and just started to feel
Some slight numbness in my left arm. I haven't had optimal amounts of sleep in the last couple days, and I have had 3 little Coca Colas today, so I think maybe those things could have a factor. I just want to make sure it's nothing more serious. Thanks.

hello,
You probably just slept on your arm in a way that irritated the nerves and this is causing the numbness. If it lasts more than a week or if it is getting worse then see a doctor
