What Causes Tingling Sensation In The Arm After Receiving An Injection?
Hello, I was diagnosed with a herniated disc in my neck, and recently had an injection done (7 days ago). I feel like my neck pain is slightly better now but my arm tingling and pain is much worse than before the injection. Did they miss that mark in doing the injection?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
