What Does Numbness In The Arms Indicate?
My husband has his right arm numb and his hand is delayed, he can t control what it does, his brain is telling it to do something, and it does, but very delayed. He carries heavy bales and a laborer. Yesterday he had a seed sack that was heavy around his neck, walking up hills, could it be a pinched nerve?

Hi There
After going through your query I understand your concern.
I would like to tell you that It can be chronic tightness catching up to him and causing the numbness. When you're super tight in upper back between the shoulder blades due to his laborer work can refer down the arms and cause numbness . He can take a muscle relaxant in topical massage will help.
Kindly consult with a Physician if numbness persist.
Hope to have been helpful.
Kind Regards
