I had a bad car accident 4 years ago and had tingling down my right arm soon after which was the drs at A&E did not seem bothered about, and it was put down to whiplash, now I have a stabbing throbbing pain from my shoulder down my upper arm and wonder if something has been missed. My hands, feet and around my mouth go blue and numb 3-4 times a day too. Is this connected and should I seek other medical attention. After all this time its really getting me down. Any help would be appreciated
Hello, As suggested by you about whiplash injury, its possible to have had some amount of traction/compression on nerve root which originate from spinal column in neck. That could explain your symptoms of tingling sensation. During recovery of nerve roots, these symptoms might increase. As long as Their is no weakness in power/sensation, nothing serious about your symptoms. To control those symptoms, course of vitamin b12 could be considered. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care
