Suggest Remedies For Numbness In The Right Arm

Sometimes it feels like my right arm is not getting blood circulation. It gets tender in my inner elbow, no tingling like a sleep foot or hand. But extreme discomfort. No matter how much I move it, the feeling doesn t go away. Sometimes it s when my arms have been at 90 degrees cutting hair all day. I m a hairstylist and right handed. Sometimes I wake up and realize I had my arm under my pillow while I was sleeping. Then for hours or mins, it always varies, that pain comes back. Should I see a doctor? I know my job can be hard on the body but I ve only been working behind the chair for 2 years.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

It may be due to nerve compression or peripheral neuropathy. For further assessment you may require MRI neck, nerve conduction studies after spine surgeon consultation. You may require tablet Pregabalin and multivitamin after consultation. For pain you can take tablet Acetaminophen.

You may require physical therapy after consultation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
