Is Numbness And Tingling Sensations In The Shock Area Normal?
Hello! I plugged in a phone charger to an outside outlet and received a mild shock. About a week later, a knot developed in the elbow of the arm that was shocked. I have had numbness and a tingling sensation in my right arm since the shock. Should I be concerned about the small (pea size) knot in my arm (directly in front of my elbow)?
