Pain, numbness and tingling of the left arm may signal a cardiac emergency. Photo Credit: Comstock Images/Stockbyte/Getty Images The person walking into an emergency room with symptoms of pain, numbness and tingling in the left arm should be prepared for a series of tests to rule out a heart problem. This is not because a heart problem is the most common cause of these symptoms, but because it is the most serious of the possible causes, and the one that demands immediate medical treatment.
Alternatively seek medication to improve your circulation. Left arm pain and tingling can also be caused by a dead arm. When this isn t caused by poor circulation it can also be caused by lying awkwardly or lack of movement. This sensation feels like your arm has become dull and heavy and then begins to tingle with cold feeling pins and needles.
