What causes my arms to fall asleep at night?

0

The feeling is usually painless, but it can be noticeable. It’s a tingling or numbness similar to the sensation that comes when you hit your “funny bone.” When this happens to your arm or other body part,your limb is often said to have “fallen asleep.” This can happen at any time, day or night.

It is because your hand or actually the nerve gets pressed due to which bloodflow stops or slows down which results in ur arm to sleep.

When a limb falls asleep it is due to a loss of blood flow. It is not always dangerous, but if this problem keeps occurring it could mean you have a underlying medical problem. It could mean your blood flow does not function properly. Look for other symptoms if you are concerned with blood flow. Like constantly having cold hands and feet. It could also be a number of other medical problems. Do not alarm until you have discussed it with a medical professional.

Sometimes it is just a unusual position of your arms, your blood circulate badly inside your arms giving you this feeling when you wake up.

Yes . I also experience this before , Tingling hands, feet, or both is an extremely common and bothersome symptom. Such tingling can sometimes be benign and temporary. For example, it could result from pressure on nerves when your arm is crooked under your head as you fall asleep. Or it could be from pressure on nerves when you cross your legs too long.
