Suggest Treatment For Severe Shoulder Pain
I had into car accident 2012 and got a whiplash. Since that accident this pain in my right shoulder to right arm to fingers is getting worse. I ve seen neurologist and says no prob except carpal tunnel. In fairness to my neurologist when she adviced me to wear a splint on my both hands at night it gets a little relieved but the pain from my shoulder to right arm getting worse and i am a right handed person. I got xray on my neck and ultrasound on my elbow and still don t get a convincing result cause i m still suffering.

Hi there.
You could be suffering from pinched nerve in the back of the neck due to probably disc prolapse. I advise you to apply hot water bottle at the painful areas and take pain killer and muscle relaxants for pain relief. You may need to get an MRI for confirmation of the nerve pinching and then treatment according to the degree of compression.
