Suggest Treatment For Numbness In Arms After Lifting Weights

Thanks, my 13 year old son was lifting buckets of gravel and carrying to the backyard yesterday for a project of his. He says that his left arm has been numb since then. He can wiggle his fingers. Is this something that will go away or does he need to be seen right away? We have not established a PCP because our insurance changed from Kaiser to Aetna in June. email: YYYY@YYYY
