What Causes Feeling Of Electric Pulse In Left Arm And Hands?

Hi! Now and then, I feel a weak electric pulse in my left arm, left hands. Is this related to the fact that my BP has been elevated since last year? Around 130/90 and 140/100. I m 48yo male asian. My doctor knows my BP history but has not given me maintenance meds yet. Just a healthier lifestyle is needed, he says. Thanks.

Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you may be having early spondylitis of cervical spine because of which you feel electric pulse. You need to get x ray of cervical spine to confirm this. Treatment of it is Diacerine and glucosamine. Mecobalamin is helpful. If you have pain then you can take analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. You can discuss with your Doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you.
Wishing you a good health. Take care.
