General Medicine . Engaged in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of a wide range of diseases, including: Infectious and viral diseases – flu, ARVI, tonsillitis, bronchitis, intestinal infections. Respiratory diseases – asthma, COPD. Cardiovascular diseases – hypertension, ischemic heart disease, arrhythmias. Endocrine disorders – diabetes, thyroid diseases, obesity. Gastrointestinal issues – gastritis, ulcers, pancreatitis, irritable bowel syndrome. Musculoskeletal disorders – arthritis, joint pain, back pain. Neurological disorders – headaches, migraines, insomnia, chronic fatigue and others. I’m currently working in a private hospital / clinic in Boduppal .

Numbness of your arm in that situation was due to nerve compression. Nerve that provides sensations and grip to move that hand was compressed due to pressure and didn’t receive adequate blood supply for certain period of time . So your hand became numb and it spontaneously resolves . In case numbness happens to you very frequently and if it specially happens without any compressive pressure - we need to workup for various causes of neuropathy . If you are vegetarian, vitamin b12 deficiency is one common cause for neuropathy
