Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a pinched nerve in the neck. I suggest using painkillers such as Acetaminophen to relieve the symptoms. I also suggest to maintain the arm immobilized to prevent further damage.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
