Extreme arm itch and tingling?
As a professional dog trainer for over 16 years, I have to tell you my strong opinion that you need these group classes for obedience training. http://OnlineDogTraining.enle.info/?kH01 Other pet warehouses are there to get you to buy their products and hang around their strore. And their trainers are their employees...never forget they have an agenda. Most of the trainers have very little education--if they had actual training and skills they wouldn't be there making just over minimum wage--trust me on this. But even if they did have experience and talent...a group setting is a terrible place for learning to take place. It's distraction training and it is the LAST phase of training not the first. You wouldn't have your child try to do their homework in a toy store, would you? Of course not...the level of distraction would be too high! It's the same with dogs. Having said that, these classes can be an excellent way to socialize dogs...but not to train them. And while they appear to be cheaper than a professional trainer...you have to attend many more sessions to get the same results because of the poor learning environment--so you wind up spending MORE money for less training than you would with a professional. Save your money and go to someone who actually knows how to train dogs. OR, read books and try to train your dog yourself. There is nothing they train at a Petsmart or Petco that you can't do yourself with a couple of hours of reading.
Rash, itching, tingling and numbness please help?
You can use Melatonin at night to supplement your own body's natural production of melatonin. Take 1 tab 1 hour before bedtime. Or another really good one is Calms Forte by Hyland Brands. Calms Forte are all natural, homeopathic. It can be used during the day for nervous tension and at night as a sleep aid. I have used these for years. Also, both the Melatonin and Calms Forte are very inexpense and can be purchaes at Wal-mart, Rite Aid, or any vitamin store.
Aside from the other answers, are you experiencing any numbness or tenderness in your forearm muscles/tendons connected to ring finger? A chronic nerve impingement in your neck (ruptured or degenerative disk, etc) can manifest its effect as pain, numbness, or weakness that translates down from your neck, through your shoulder and rotator cuff and down your arm to your fingers. Of the various symptoms that I mentioned, weakness is probably the most serious and likely merits a trip to the doc. Hopefully, it’s just an acute condition/local injury of some sort.
What can you do about pinched nerve in neck causing tingling in arm?
Cinnamon Remedy Many homeopathic specialists encourage the use of a cinnamon-based paste to provide relief to necks suffering from pinched nerves. To make the paste, combine 1 tbsp. of cinnamon, 1 tbsp. of honey and a quarter cup of rose water. Mix and apply with a washcloth to the area, and leave on for approximately half an hour before washing off with warm water. This concoction is noted to provide relief by relieving the pain temporarily. An additional homeopathic remedy for pinched nerves is to cut a raw potato into thick slices. Lay the slices over the afflicted area and leave on for half an hour. After the potato begins to dry, remove and wash the area with warm water. This remedy is reported to assist in speeding the recovery of the pinched nerve, and may provide relief to some patients. Mustard Oil Remedy Some patients have experienced relief from painful pinched nerves by applying warm mustard oil to the neck. This mixture should be left on the neck for as long as possible. The concoction apparently works because it assists in loosening the nerves and helping them relax; this relaxation ensures that the nerves realign in the correct position. Additional Homeopathic Remedies The easiest homeopathic remedy for a pinched nerve is rest. Patients should refrain from any unnecessary physical activity, and should be sure to obtain six to eight hours of sleep a night. In addition, patients may find relief in applying ice to the area for five minutes at a time. Patients may also try sleeping without a pillow and sitting with the back aligned properly upright. This ensures that the back is not hunched, which aggravates the pinched nerve.

I have itchy, tingly fingers after washing/drying hands, dishes?
Who knows the Military uses all kinds of secret crap. A friend of mine was in Iraq and he came back with all kind of weird symptoms. He decided to see his own doctor and the Military came into his doctors office and confiscated his records. They told his doctor it was a Military issue and he had no right to treat him as a patient. So he hired a lawyer to go after the Government. They put him back home as a recruiter and his condition turned for the worse. Now he can barely walk. A week before his court date he tried to call his lawyer and she was nowhere to be found. Her office was closed and the number was disconnected. Talk about weird huh. Now he is pretty much crippled and can't do anything about it. He told me that they were all briefed in Iraq by a General. They were told to leave the area and that it was not safe to be there. Needless to say the General was wearing a fallout suit, but no one else was. He got into a chopper and flew away. Come to find out the area was contaminated with depleted uranium. Now he is suffering from the ill affects of radiation exposure. I guess they use it in bunker busters and anti-tank rounds. So they shunned him and did nothing for him. Now he gets a Government check as he slowly dies. Nice huh.....
Normal would indicate that the symptoms you are describing are the expected outcome of the treatment. Therefore, the answer to you question is very simply, no.Normally, a cervical manipulation or adjustment in which you hear a popping or cracking sound is uncomfortable to some degree, but should not be painful.There are a wide range of possibilities as to why you are now experiencing these symptoms and they are dependent on the pre-existing condition, severity of the condition, and experience of your chiropractor in dealing with these problems. Those possibilities can include inflammation of the cervical joints around the nerve roots, muscular spasm of the scalene muscles which will compress the brachial plexus, over stretching of the particular nerve roots causing a disruption of the myelin sheath or actual tear of the nerve, and even rupture of a cervical disc or exacerbation of a disc that was already ruptured.The point is that, no, it is not normal, and may or may not be serious and may or may not be the fault of your chiropractor. If the symptoms persist for more than a few days, then I would recommend a neurological evaluation and potentially an MRI to rule out anything serious. As always, you should tell your treating doctor about this and make sure that it gets documented in his daily notes. You can do this by requesting a copy of those notes and reading them yourself.
Nidhi Dhawan and Gerlando Piro are correct. Our nerves connect in funny and unexpected ways sometimes. I can't think of examples just now but I believe there are also odd places you can stimulate that will make your fingers curl, or your foot jerk, or send shivers down your spine. Our bodies are amazingly complex constructions and things sometimes connect in ways we'd never expect!SUGGESTION THOUGH: If you're going to be sticking Q-Tips in your ear, be VERY careful. I believe you can seriously injure your ear drum: be VERY VERY gentle if you're putting it in that far. You should NEVER apply any actual pressure if you feel you're touching that deep. You're probably more likely to impact wax AGAINST your eardrum than you are to actually be "cleaning" it.One folk remedy that I *think* is fairly harmless if it's not overdone and you feel a need to "clean" the inside of your ear canal, might be to lie on your side, making sure that your head is tilted back to the side so none runs in your eyes, and drip a few drops of hydrogen peroxide into the ear and then let is sit and bubble away for a minute or two. Do that at your own risk though: I ain't a doctor and, while I've done it a few times with no harm, I can't guarantee in any way that it's actually safe (though obviously I *think* it's safe or I wouldn't have done it to myself! LOL!)Another alternative is a nice hot shower while tilting your head a few times to encourage the water to enter and then drain. - MJM
I recently had a massage. I am now having tingling and numbness in all my extremities. nerve damage?
During the massage, I was experiencing involunteering muscle twitching, while the therapist was pressing on certain knots on my muscles. Could I have gotten some nerve damage now? The numbness started in my arms and hands, but now it is also in my legs and feet. This starts after I've been sleeping for a few hours.
Tingling after back massage? Help?!?
Hi, do not worry. The tingling is an excellent sign. It means that your blood flow is reaching areas that have not had a good blood supply for a little while. Our blood travels around 60,000 miles or 100,000 kilometres (true) of blood vessels, from major ateries and veins, down to tiny capiliaries. When blood has not been inside the tiny blood capiliaries for some time then they tingle and sometimes even itch, as the blood comes flooding back. Your massage has relaxed your muscles enough to allow more blood to flow and flow more easily. It is a good thing. Do you remember, as a child when perhaps you had scraped a knee and a scab had formed, well just before the scab let go, it would itch. This happened as the area beneath the scab re-filled with fresh blood, getting ready the new skin below. You can't control it, just think about how much good it's doing and try to enjoy the sensation. It won't last long. Sleep well.
