What causes numbness and tingling pain?

As the muscles of the shoulder, especially the brachialis, become stretched, their ability to contract is limited, resulting in pain. This results in numbness and tingling feeling on the arm and/or the shoulder.

If the shoulder joint is injured, the nerves that supply nerve endings to the muscles also get stressed. This causes nerves to grow weaker and become less able to sense what’s happening to the muscles. These nerves also are affected when pain is felt. This can cause tingling pain in the arms and/shoulder when there’s the injury is severe.
