Why when i wake up does my arm have no feeling. and i cant move it for about 30 minutes?


i have an injury from the military. it was a dislocation of the right elbow with a radial head break, and damage the the ligaments. the injury was repaired but i have limited extension of the elbow, and limited rotation in my wrist. could there be some other injury relating to this that could cause this problem. also the injury is about 3 years old, and it just now started to have this extent of numbness

now this was during my time in the military. and i am already getting compensation from the VA. would this be something that could increase my compensation. and would any of medical exam be cover by the VA hospital?

Circulation. I have that issue too. sometimes my fingers tingles all day.

maybe you slept on it weird?

I see a lot of this at work. The numbness could be caused by a pinched nerve depending on what part of your arm becomes numb. This may coming from your neck(cervical spine) radiating down into your arm. Your injury itself my have done damage to your nerve ending. Consult your Dr. You may need x-rays and then a possible MRI to figure out what is going on.

you could have a pinched nerve
