right arm numbness

[dannyday5821]

recently ive been getting numbness in my right arm - but now, as in as im typing, its turning into pain...what causes this? should i be worried....?

it could be anything or nothing, but it's one to put to a medical expert asap.

It could be RSI- too much time spent in one position on the computer. Can you avoid sitting there/using a PC for a week and see if it gets better?

Too much w@anking !

Hi danny, ive got exactly the same problem.
I`m putting it down to pressure on the underside of my arm from the edge of the desk as i`m using the mouse.
I`ve applied a support bandage which is helping a little.

I agree with most of the posts, as I suffer from RSI, caused by to much playstation, good few years ago, which every now and then comes on while at the keyboard! But any numbness, especially in the arm, I would check out with my G.P. �Hope This Helps!

i also suffer from right arm numbness but it usually stops when i take my arm out of the deep freezer!

i agree that it could be caused by your arm or elbow resting on the edge of a desk or table while your typing cos i get exactly the same thing and i think its caused by the nerves in your arm being compressed.
