Please help!!!! Half of my right arm has been "numb" for the past 4 days. It goes from my wrist all the way to my underarms. When I rub my arm...I can barely feel anything...As if I am wearing many long sleeve shirts. There is no prickly sensations....Just numbness...And my hand is not numb either...Just my arm. Please help if you know what may be causing this or what this may be, thanks!

While I was lying in bed my shoulder and left arm became really tight. All of the sudden a sensation of tingles began to take over my arm. It felt like pins and needles (numbing). MY face became hot fleshed and red. This happened again 10 minutes later. What does this mean?
