Pain In Shoulder Goes Down To Elbow, Started Working In Yard. What Could Be This?
about 2 weeks ago I was raking in the yard at first thought was just muscle strain im 54 yrs old but now the last few weeks have a stinging pain that starts in my shoulder and goes down my right arm to my elbow and its quite painful but then I can go 2-3 days without any pain. I have no insurance. Any idea whats going on ?

Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
From description radiating pain to from shoulder down to arm and elbow seems to be due to pinched nerve. Thourogh clinical examination is required . I suggest you to get it evaluated by orthopaedician to reach the correct diagnosis and treatment plan according to that.
Hope this will helps you. Let me know if you have any more concerns.
