Detailed Answer:
Hi
The tingling sensation in upper limb could be due to Nerve stimulation after putting your finger in the electric socket.
It is a temporary phenomenon.
Once the nerve is repaired,the symptoms will come down.Duration of recovery varies from individual to individual.
I prescribe Capsule containing Alpha lipoic acid along with Methylcobalamine twice daily to my patients with similar complaints.
Nothing to worry. It will come down.
If the symptoms persist,please consult a Neurologist,get examined clinically and proceed accordingly.
Hope I answered your query. If you have any questions, I will clarify further.
Wish you good health.
