I waitress about 5 days a week and I lift
heavy objects, especially trays. When I
carry heavy trays from one end to the
other by the time I go and sit the tray
down it seems to me that my arm falls
asleep (or its tingling?) and my hand goes
numb for a few seconds to where I can't
pick anything up. Please let me know if
this can be serious or not. Thank you.

First off, have you seen a doctor about
this? Currently i'm not at all a fan of
doctors right now because of what's happen
to me, but they are the only
"professional" resource. Still, I know
this may not be a big enough problem to
visit the hospital but at least it's a
start.
Forking cash out for a doctor to tell you
his opinion (good or bad), is up to you,
though from what you've mentioned it
doesn't sound like a big problem.
I say if it continues, and especially if
the numbing starts lasting longer, i'd see
professional help.
