What is your range of motion on your affected side? How often do you use your affected side in daily activity? It sounds as if you possibly haven't been using it as much and those areas are becoming stiff and thus numb? I suggest regular stretching. If this happened to me, I would definitely get the recent numbness checked out by a doctor.

Hi DJSpringfield52

I agree with Jennifer P. on this issue. Moreover, finding an O.T. and P.T. for exercises may help with the apathy. Stay positive with your BPI. Use the forums! There are a lot of people with BPI, Erb's Palsy, TBPI, OBPI, and other conditions. We use our experiences and past therapies to share with people...to ease one's anxiety. Stay with UBPN and share your viewpoints of BPI. Keep Smiling!

I have found relief doing streching in a warm water pool and a hot tub.Always warm water!I have not had surgeries or PT for my OBPI, but I did cheat when I broke my leg and asked the PT for suggestions that i could do. Water excercize was the best ever when i had energy to do it.(I've been ill alot, so walking with my dog,Lucy is all i can handle now.)
