But i think this is because of what im doing in school , because i am a culinary student, and i do a lot of stirring and heavy lifting, and hours on my feet...so i dont know if this is the reason, cause i never did get numbness before i started school...
I AM 47 YEARS OLD AND IN PRETTY GOOD HEALTH,I DO HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE .I WASH CARS FOR A LIVING AND USE MY LEFT ARM AND SHOULDER ALOT.I HAVE NEVER SUFFERED A SHOULDER INJURY BEFORE.LATELY WHENEVER I ACCIDENTLY BANG MY SHOULDER I GET A SEVERE BURNING SENSATION AND IT RADIATES DOWN MY ARM AND I BREAK OUT INTO A COLD SWEAT,AND GET WEAK FOR A FEW MINUTES.WHAT COULD CAUSE THIS?

I have a sister and a friend that had these problems, the problem came from the spinal disk where your neck connects to your head. they both had disk damage and had to have plates put in to correct the problem. this does not mean that is your problem, it can be a pinched nerve. if you have played sports, fallen or been in a wreck in the past it could just now be showing signs of damage.I would go to a orthopedic doctor and tell him your symptoms, he will most likely take do a scan which will pin point your problem. I am going myself because I am having problems just to ease my mind or get it corrected i can't stand dealing with this all of the time. Usually these things do not go away without the help of a Dr.
Wow! I have the same symptoms. A constant dull warmish pain of the right shoulder that gets very bad at times. It comes with numbness af the side of the arm all the way down to the thumb. Last night I woke up with a huge burning pain inside my right upper arm, so bad that I cried out. Pain killers do not help much. Were any of you able to get some sort of diagnosis?

Eventually found this on the above website for the Left hand but I guess it can go equally for the right hand:
Compression of the Ulnar Nerve. The ulnar nerve is one of the main nerves that pass through the arm. It passes through the cubital tunnel, running under the medial epicondyle on the inner side of the elbow. A compressed ulnar nerve can certainly cause numbness in hand. Accumulation of fluid in the elbow region could cause swelling which in turn may cause entrapment of this nerve.Repetitive movements wherein the elbow is bent could cause ulnar nerve entrapment. Elbow injuries, development of bone spurs or cysts near the elbow joint could also make one susceptible. Sleeping with the elbow in a bent position could also give rise to numbness. The ulnar nerve carries the sensory fibers and provides sensation to the ring finger and the little finger. A compressed ulnar nerve could therefore cause a tingling sensation in these fingers. If the nerve stays compressed for a long time, the affected individual may find it hard to grip objects. In severe cases, finger coordination is affected.
