Touchdown! Greaser!
The left armrest broke in my truck while I was on my way out to CA just over a week ago. After resting my arm on the window sill on the door, which was running between my elbow and the inside elbow joint (right in the little "valley" there), I'm having problems with my arm.
At first I thought it was circulation, because my arm felt like it had "fallen asleep" (tingles and such, like after you lean on it for too long). However, the tingles have remained, especially in my ring finger and pinkie as well as along the whole underside of my arm. I noticed when trying to put my laptop on a shelf that I can no longer hold it with my left hand, so there's a strength issue as well.
I'm guessing I did something to some nerve. Is there anything I can do to try to fix it without having to take days off to go to a doctor?
