Suggest Treatment For Numbness And Pain In Forearm And Shoulder
Hello sir. I have pulled the nerve in my whole arm from my shoulder to my thumb. It has been like this for a few months now. .Although it s not as bad anymore I still feel the numbness and sometimes pain in my forearm and shoulder areas. I would like to know how much longer it will take to heal. Very kind regards Tommy taylor
Nerve injury can take long time to heal so I would recommend you to get EMG, NCV test to check if there is nerve compression in the shoulder . Other cause can be cervical spondylysis. I would also suggest you to take Pregabalin and methylcobal tablet .
