Answers:
I hope I don't sound alarming but I want this to be as informative as it could be!. Applied pressure on your forearm/ biceps for prolonged periods of time is not good!. It impedes circulation in that area and that is the reason why you feel numbness on that portion!. It shows signs of an altered tissue perfusion which is definitely not good since it would mean that blood supply to that area is low and might lead to tissue damage overtime or in advanced stages which we should avoid as early as now!. I hope you'd get a pillow or if you aren't comfortable with it then find other alternatives like-using a stack of towels/blankets as pillows instead or anything that could cushion your head and hopefully render you a good night's sleep!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
