right arm
Most trusted helper
The right arm is the upper limb on the right side of the body.
Figuratively, someone's right arm is their most trusted, reliable, and indispensable helper or assistant: She's been my right arm at work for fifteen years.
The expression give one's right arm conveys extreme willingness to sacrifice for something desired: I'd give my right arm for tickets to that show.
