What Could Cause Tingling In My Right Arm & Fingertips?

I woke up with a strong sensation of tingling in my right arm and fingertips.. It has subsided somewhat over the past 2 hours in my arm but it is still lingering in the tips of my fingers.. I drove myself to the library and noticed also that I have extreme blurred vision I can tell it the most when I m trying to read road signs.

Hello,

The tingling in your right arm is probably related to a wrong position during sleep, which has lead to a pinched nerve (also called Saturday night palsy).

Regarding the blurring vision, I don't think that it is related to the arm tingling. It could be caused by low blood pressure. For this reason, I recommend you to closely monitor your blood pressure values.

In case of low blood pressure, some water and salt intake would help.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
