Pain In The Arm, Clicking In The Thumb. Sleeping On The Floor. Is That The Reason?
Hi I have been having pain in my right arm for about three weeks now, the pain starts from the top of my right arm down to my thumb which has a constant clickling in the thumb, I am currently sleeping on a mattress on the floor because I brought a new bed and the mattress that came with the bed was giving me back pains and now I'm sleeping on a spring mattress on the floor could that be the pain?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain in the arm that you have could be related to a muscle spasm in the area. You can use a firm mattress on the floor for sleeping. It can be due to an abnormal neck position.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
