Why is My Arm Numb When I Wake Up?

Sleeping with your arm under your head or body can result in numbness and tingling.

 

Numbness in one or both hands describes a loss of sensation or feeling in your hand or fingers. Often, numbness in hands may be accompanied by other changes, such as a pins-and-needles sensation, burning or tingling. The arm, hand or fingers may feel clumsy or weak. Numbness can occur along a single nerve, or it may occur in both hands in a symmetrical pattern.

Arm numbness is most common in slide sleepers, as the sleeping position results in you lying on one arm. There is a nerve running the length of your arm called the median nerve. When compressed over a period of time, you can experience numbness. If you’re sleeping on your side, and waking up with your arm numb, there are things you can do to help avoid the problem.

The wrong pillow can exacerbate nerve problems in your arm. Sleeping with your arm under your head or body can result in numbness and tingling.




  It is common for people to wake up with numbness and tingling in their arm or hands. This is often due to sleeping with an arm beneath your body or head. When there is enough weight on your arm, it can compress nerves which results in numbness or tingling. This is often referred to having one’s arm “fall asleep”.

How Can I Avoid Waking Up with My Arm Numb?

Of course, you want to avoid numbness, tingling and the associated discomfort, if possible. Be aware of your sleeping position. Is your head and neck being supported properly? Many people do not know that their pillow can have a significant impact on nerve compression in your arms. If your pillow is not supporting your head properly, keeping your neck straight, nerve compression problems can become worse.
Try using a pillow that is firm and thick enough to support your head and neck. The firmness of your mattress also is a factor in your sleeping position and comfort. Since your body does not sink far into a firm mattress, your head is naturally higher off the surface of the bed, usually necessitating a firmer, thicker pillow.
It makes sense to start experimenting with your pillow, rather than to go out and buy an expensive new mattress. Eliminating your arm numbness and tingling might be as simple as trying a different pillow.

 

What Should I Do When I Wake up with My Arm Numb?

Generally if you roll over to relieve the pressure, the numbness and tingling will quickly subside. Moving your hands and arm can help restore feeling in your arm after waking up. Experimenting with different pillows, mattresses and sleeping positions can help you find relief. If you experience extreme numbness or pain, or numbness not related to sleeping on your arm, you should speak with your doctor to make sure it is not something more serious.

 

What’s the Best Pillow?

Your best bet is always going to be a thinner, low loft pillow type. More specifically, you’re best off with a pillow that allows its fill to be added or removed. That will allow you to fine tune it to your preferences.

Everyone one is built different, so what may be good for one person may not be the case for someone else. Do your research, talk to your doctors about you symptoms and then visit
