pins and needles

Hi everyone

Looking for a bit of advice, over the last week I’m suffering from pins and needles in my right hand, it’s quite annoying, also my arm below the elbow feels really heavy, I sometimes get pins and needles in my left hand, and cold spots on my body, ie shoulder area can be really cold but my arm is warm, any advice would be great.

Hello :-)

I get pins and needles in my feet and hands but they come and go usually when I change position if I am sat down or start moving about

Do you think any of your medications could be doing this as some do have this as a side effect

I would make an appointment and have a word with your Doctor rather than wondering there could be a simple explanation and it is always good to know rather than ignore it

Let us know how you get on :-) x
