Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Numbness And Tingling In Arms And Fingers?
I had blood drawn a week ago and when the needle went in my arm I had a sharp pain run down to my finger tips and my arm and fingers went numb and tingly but still hurt. Ever since then my arm and wrist hurts if I stretch it or move a certain way. It gets tingly and numb sometimes and sometimes feels cold inside my arm. It is really uncomfortably . Should I be worried?
