What Causes Tightness In Arm While Moving It?

Hello. My right arm feels tight when I move it. I tend to worry so don t want to panic either. I m 43 yrs old, black female. The right side of my cheek feels tingly. I can move around fine and talk normally. Should this be a concern? I work out 4 times a week as well and am in good condition, not over weight. 5 4 and weight 120 pounds

Hi,
It seems that there might be having some degenerative changes in your cervical vertebrae producing pinched nerve pressure giving tingling sensation on the cheek.
there might be having arm muscle stiffness due to some osteoporosis changes as well resulting at this age.
Go for physiotherapy.
Take B1, B6, B12 supplements.
Take calcium and vitamin D supplements as well.
Ok and take care.
