In this case , depending on the suffering nerve root , numbness can be localized:
  • along the inner surface of the arm , from the shoulder to the tips of the 5th and half of the 4th fingers of the hand ( C7);
  • on the back of the shoulder and forearm , the back of the 2nd and 3rd fingers ( C6);
