What s the deal with elbow numbness? I ve had a little numb in my elbow for the last two days.

Arm numbness is a symptom caused by a problem with the nerves of the arm, and there are three common conditions in the usual pathology:

Numbness in the arm caused by a herniated cervical disc pressing on a nerve.

Thoracic outlet syndrome, a condition caused by scalene muscle tension entrapment of the brachial plexus.

The infraspinatus area will also compress the nerve and cause numbness in the arm, in ordinary life, if the arm is compressed for a long time and the nerve compression will also cause numbness in the arm, this is a physiological normal condition, as long as there is no long-term compression necrosis, it will recover after a while.

The right elbow was numb under the elbow, the elbow had been scratched by glass, and after the wound was healed, the elbow was numb, and the electromyography concluded that it was neurogenic damage, most likely due to cutaneous damage to the ulnar nerve or radial nerve. It is recommended to go to the neurosurgery department of the hospital**, if there is an indication for surgery, nerve repair surgery should be performed in time, and nerve growth factor, methylcobalamin, etc. should be used to restore nerve sensation as much as possible after surgery.

It may be caused by poor blood flow.

1) Cervical spondylosis: due to cervical hyperostosis or cervical disc degeneration and protrusion compressing the nerve root or spinal cord, it can cause unilateral or bilateral paresthesia in the upper limbs, often with symptoms such as numbness or pain in the upper limbs, stiffness in the neck, and soreness in the neck muscles.

2) Cerebrovascular disease: If the sensory conduction pathway is damaged, it can cause paresthesia in the upper limbs, and it can be accompanied by other neurological deficit symptoms such as limb weakness, dizziness, etc.

3) Diabetes: Diabetes mellitus complicated with peripheral neuropathy can cause numbness, swelling and pain in the limbs, mostly symmetrical.

I often feel that my arms and my thighs always feel very numb, and I still feel that something is crawling on them, it is very itchy, and sometimes I can't stand it and need cold water to apply it to get better, and there is no bad feeling in other parts of my body. So, what's the deal with numbness in the arm?

Method steps.

First, it is considered to be caused by cervical spondylosis, which is a disease that seriously endangers the health of desk workers, and its manifestations are diverse. The main symptoms include pain in the back of the neck and shoulders, soreness, weakness of the upper limbs, cold limbs, numbness of the fingers, dizziness, nausea, tinnitus and numbness of the tongue, palpitation, local sweating, and even blurred vision.

Second: hand numbness is likely to be caused by cervical bone spurs compressing the nerve, for the cervical vertebrae bone spurs compressing the nerves, loosen the ligaments around the posterior joint of the cervical spine through a bladed needle, and adjust the position of the cervical joint with manual manipulation to achieve the purpose of not compressing the nerve.

Third, the numbness of the arm may be caused by the compression of the nerve by the cervical spine. It may also be caused by peripheral nerve compression, you can do a nerve electromyography examination of the numb arm, and now apply drugs to nourish the nerves such as Micobao orally, if necessary, surgery**.

Fourth: Generally, the numbness of the arm is caused by poor local blood circulation caused by the cervical spine compressing nerves or blood vessels. It is best to go to the hospital to have your cervical spine checked and confirm the specific cause of the disease before proceeding**.

Fifth: Spike liquid this phenomenon is usually related to peripheral neuropathy or cervical spondylosis, need to find out**, long-term use of the same posture may appear numbness of the fingers, appropriate more activities, if necessary, use some nerve-nourishing drugs such as Mi Kebao, vitamin B12, etc. **.

Sixth: The symptom of numbness in the hands and arms cannot be ruled out as being caused by cervical spondylosis compressing the nerves. See an orthopedic surgeon for a physical examination, and if necessary, CT to confirm the diagnosis. Cervical spondylosis** generally requires massage, traction, acupuncture, physiotherapy, taking traditional Chinese medicine and other conservative **.

Precautions. There are many kinds of numbness in the arm**, when you don't know how to guess yourself**, don't self-medicate, so as not to aggravate the condition, be sure to go to a regular doctor for examination**.

It is often known that some people feel that there will be obvious numbness in the arm, and the numbness will not be able to be controlled if it is more serious.

Method steps.

First: arm numbness, considering that it is caused by cervical spine disease compressing nerves, it is recommended that you go to the hospital to take a cervical spine quadruple film, or neck magnetic resonance for a clear diagnosis after symptomatic**.

Second: the first choice of traction physiotherapy for spondylosis can be combined with acupuncture and massage, and the effect should be insisted on according to the course of treatment.

Third: In addition to cervical spondylosis, there are many possibilities for hand numbness, such as frozen shoulder, peripheral nerve entrapment, diabetic vascular disease, hypertension, cerebral hemorrhage, electrolyte disorders, etc., it is recommended to check cervical spine film, fasting blood glucose, blood pressure and other related examinations to formulate the corresponding ** plan after clarification.

Precautions. The arm feels numb, this situation will occur in many diseases, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time to check the body, or take medicine**.

The numbness in the arm may be due to a problem with the sensory nerve innervating the arm, which is commonly caused by the following reasons:

Clause. 1. Cervical spondylosis, the nerves innervating the upper limbs are emanating from the cervical spine, so cervical spondylosis and cervical disc herniation are easy to compress the nerve roots, causing numbness in the arms, and sometimes accompanied by painful symptoms, which is more common in middle-aged and older people.

Clause. 2. Cerebrovascular disease, including cerebral infarction or cerebral hemorrhage. This condition is more common in people who are older and have atherosclerotic underlying diseases, if there is sudden numbness in one arm and symptoms of weakness, we must be alert to the problem of cerebrovascular disease.

Clause. 3. Syringomyelia, which is a chronic progressive lesion of the spinal cord, is not very clear and can manifest as stage numbness of the arm.

It is normal to have a numb tendon at the elbow that may tingle if you accidentally touch it. If it is not usually numb in the arm, the numbness indicates that the qi and veins are open, but the qi and blood have not arrived, indicating that the arm is lacking. If you have enough qi and blood, it is a blockage in the arm, carefully search on the arm, tap, find the most painful place, scrape or massage, and dredge it.

This specific situation is analyzed specifically, and there are many reasons for it, the most common is that the posture is wrong, the nerve has been compressed for a long time, and there is pathological cause, so you have to go to the hospital for examination.

The most common disease with frequent numbness in the arm is cervical spondylosis, which is known only when you go to the hospital for a specific examination. The most common disease that causes numbness in the hands is cervical spondylosis, and it is not difficult to diagnose cervical spondylosis, as long as you take an X-ray.

Common causes of arm numbness include the following:

1. Cervical spondylosis: At present, there are more and more people who bow their heads, so the incidence of cervical spondylosis is also increasing. Patients can do cervical spine CT or cervical spine MRI to check the condition of the cervical spine.

If it is found to be related to cervical spondylosis, it is recommended to improve one's unhealthy lifestyle, avoid bowing your head to play with your mobile phone, playing on the computer or working at the desk, often looking up at the sky or doing cervical spine exercises, with acupuncture, physiotherapy and taking nutritional nerve drugs, you can generally get effective recovery;

2. Cerebrovascular disease: especially when middle-aged and elderly people have underlying diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, etc., if they find numbness in their arms, especially when they are accompanied by numbness in their lower limbs, they should pay attention to it. It is recommended to see a doctor in the neurology department in time for cranial CT or cranial MRI non-contrast scan plus vascular scan, and when problems are found, follow the rules of cerebrovascular disease in time**;

3. Diabetes: If blood sugar is not well controlled, diabetic peripheral neuropathy or diabetic mononeuropathy will occur, which will cause numbness in the arms or legs. It is recommended to use nutritional neurological drugs in a timely manner, such as epalastat, and to control blood sugar well, which can relieve the symptoms of arm numbness.

All diseases need to be examined in detail under the guidance of a doctor, and the cause should be dealt with in time after being found. Patients should not be too nervous and anxious, and need to cooperate with **and**, which can effectively relieve the symptoms of arm numbness.
