What Causes Severe Numbness In Both Arms?

Hello Doctor. I am experiencing numbness through out both arms all the time. When I sleep and at work. Almost all the time the spasms that go through my back and my hands cramp up a lot. I am only 40 and have slightly high blood pressure. My fingers are numb and feel like needles pinning them all the time.

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having cervical spondilitis producing pressure on nerves supplying arms.
Go for x-ray cervicalregion for cervical spondilitis.
Physiotherapy, short way diathermy will be of much helpful.
