it might be diabetic neuropathy where the nerves are being damaged by the high sugar level in the blood. Do not let anyone tell you that it cannot be helped,especially with a non drug. take at least 600 mg per day of alpha lipoic acid and in a few days the sensation that you feel will get better. ALA is very safe not very expensive not a drug and has no adverse effects. I have used it for 6 years now

∙ 15y agoIt may be a heart attack. Everyone should treat a sore, tingling arm as a full-scale emergency. Call a local hospital or clinic for medical advice.
In addition, go to where there are other people. Go to a neighbour's house, walk to a park or mall, and make sure that someone nearby knows CPR.

∙ 15y agoNeuropathy is a medical term describing disorders of the nerves of the peripheral nervous system (specifically excluding encephalopathy and myelopathy, which refer to the central nervous system.)[1] It is usually considered equivalent to peripheral neuropathy.

∙ 15y agoThis is likely caused by a pinched nerve in the shoulder or in the cervical spine. Often this occurs when you sleep/put pressure on a nerve for too long and the nerve is compressed. This is rarely a long term problem if this is how it occurred.
Other instances may include over exertion of the muscles around this nerve(over head lifting). Often when muscles are sore and repairing the fibers, they swell and this can also lead to the compression of a nerve.
If you have this sensation for more than 24 hours I suggested seeing a physician so they can do a proper assessment to determine the cause.

I don't believe it's a stroke, not other signs are prevelent.
Additional answer
It doesn't sound like a stroke to me - more like a heart attack. But I'm not a trained medic. You should definitely consult one.

Cyst at base of neck chronic mid back pain numb arm and tingling fingers Are these all connected Whats wrong with you?
A cyst on the neck is caused by a plugged sebaceous (oil) gland... Mid-back pain is rarely the cause of tingling fingers. Numb arm & tingling fingers are most likely related. The cause? Anything from a pinched nerve in the neck to a spasming muscle (on the same side as the arm/fingers tingling) in the upper back near the spine. You need an exam and proper xrays... See an orthopaedic physician. I disagree with this guy! I searched these exact symptoms and found this post. I have the symptoms that you describe, and when I empty the cyst the symptoms stop. The contents of this cyst smell funkier than anything I have ever experienced. I have to think that this cyst, or the crap that it contains, impinges on a nerve and causes the other symptoms.
