Problem description: I am 25 years old, male, overweight (currently 135kg). I work in the office, and I spend most of my day facing the computer, and I have to use the computer continuously for about 4 hours when I get home. Some time ago, I suddenly found that my right arm began to go numb after about 15 minutes on the desk (I didn't feel numb much for a day before).

Then I felt a slight numbness in the fingers of the little finger of the right hand, whether I was sitting, lying down or standing, the little finger of the right hand felt slightly numb. And the tingling sensation began to intensify, spreading from the fingers of the little finger to the whole little finger.

The situation is that no matter what state my right hand is in (without compressing it), my little finger feels numb. And when the right hand is under normal compression (e.g., holding the mouse with the arm on the desk). The feeling of numbness in the little finger of the right hand will be aggravated), please tell you, what kind of situation is this, what department should you see when you go to the hospital, thank you!

I've also read some of the information on the Internet scrambling liquid, but I don't know what kind of situation is corresponding to self-destruction.

I hope that all well-wishers will answer and guide you to seek medical treatment, thank you!
