Blue Left Arm

My DD was playing shuttle cocks with her dad tonight and when they had finished I noticed her left arm had turned blue. She says it didn't hurt or feel numb but I am worried. Has anyone else had this with their child. She is ten.

That doesn't sound good. I'd ring NHS direct or whatever the equivalent is now. Does she seem ok in herself? Not unduly out of breath or anything? (Disclaimer - I'm not a medical professional).

I'd seek some medical advice.

She seems totally fine. Not remotely bothered. The colour is starting to come back now. I am going to book her a Drs appointment anyway.

Sounds like a good idea.

Sounds like a blood circulation issue. See what the GP says.
