What Does Numbness In The Arms Indicate?
my husband has been sick coughing, runny nose, he is coughing so hard his ribs hurt terribly. He is now having a pinched feeling in both of his shoulders. He says it feels like both of his arms don t have circulation, and feel numbish. he recently has EKG,stress test, ECHCARDIOGRAM, ( only because he was having trouble while playing basketball, getting out of breath and can t catch his breath, He is 53.) all of the tests came out fine. But, they said his heart muscle has toughened. From having high blood pressure since he was 25, and not have it controlled. Does the shoulder numbness have to do with the sickness going around, or should I get him to the emergency room. ( we are currently starting 3 ibuprophin every 6 hrs.) PLease help asap. Anita
