Three patients are reported who had painful numbness in upper extremities regressing temporarily after performing rather intensive movements. Analgesics are non efficacious in relieving this symptom. The observed painful syndrome relieved for some time by movements of the upper extremities seems to be an analogy of the restless legs syndrome. Perhaps the designation "restless arms syndrome" could be introduced.
