Arm pain

[Tizzwas]

Hi I wonder if anyone has experienced arm pain similar to pins and needles. It keeps me awake. I was having acupuncture but not helping. Is it some kind of neuropathy? I get irritable feet too.

Depending on where the pins and needles are it could be a couple of things. A trapped nerve or degenerated disc in the neck can affect the nerve leading down the arm and the outer fingers on the hand. Cubital tunnel syndrome, where the nerve goes through a narrow part of the inner elbow, can affect the lower part of the arm and the outer fingers, while carpal tunnel affects the inner fingers. It really is best to get it checked.
