Tingling in one side can be indicated by many things. Trauma to the shoulder. Pinching of the brachiocephalic nerve. Hitting the elbow can do it. Heart attacks are generally felt on the left side. Carpal tunnel can cause tingling and numbness in wrist and hand. So if it could be a heart attack, seek medical attention. If it has lasted over three days, schedule an appointment with an orthopedic office.

This occurs due to temporary lack of blood flow, most often due to pressure on the arm - such as while sleeping. The "pins and needles" sensation produces awakening (or lightening of sleep) such that positional changes are made in order to return blood flow to that part of the arm and shoulder.

What can cause numbness and tingling in left thumb?

There are many different possible causes to numbness or tingling. In this day and age the most likely is perhaps the slight pinching of nerves in the arm due to leaning on the edge of a desk. This happens frequently when playing games on the computer, or typing for a long time. Leaning on the left arm of a chair while watching TV can also pinch nerves in the arm or shoulder. Repetitive motion (carpal tunnel syndrome) from typing, thumbing a game controller, or even texting can contribute to tingling and numbness. Diabetes can also cause problems. So seriously consider seeing your doctor and get a blood test.
