Is Pain In Arm Radiating To Shoulder Due To Pulled Muscle?

I think I have a pulled muscle in the left arm. Very painful since I awoke this am. Can only raise arm half way up and is making me sick at my stomach. If I put arm forward it makes me real nauseous. Pain is beginning to radiate into my shoulder and lower arm this evening. What does this sound like to you ?

it can be a sprain. apply analgesic ointment like voveran and take tab combiflam three times daily. may be due to bad posture and pressure on hand it has resulted in sprain. in few hours it will go. sleep with mantaining right posture. you will improve with this treatment.

Hi...Can understand your concern.. As per your query pain in shoulder which is radiating also can be muscle spasm possibly and you need to take a muscle relaxant like flexon with topical application of diclofenac gel..... If pain is radiating towards left arm and If not getting relief by this i would suggest you to go for ECG or ECHO to rule out Myocardial infarction and you should talk to your physician about it. I hope this information helps you.Takecare.
