Can stress cause numbness in my arm?
Patient: yes I do have a question?  I am experiencing an arm that has gone numb underneath I started noticing that it had no feeling about a week ago as I was using a washcloth on me in the shower.  I have been under a lot of stress lately and didn't know if that may be the cause or what?  Can a person get bells palsy somewhere on the body besides the face? Doctor: HIThank for asking to HCMI really appreciate your concern stress can cause any thing and not just the numbness only, no need to worry about the Bell's palsy because this is may not be due to the stress, hope this information helps you, have a good day
