What Causes Forearm Pain, Headaches And Nausea?

My husband had pain in his forearms, severe headaches and nausea with the headaches. He s seen 11 doctors. They say there is no neuropathy and it s not carpel tunnel or nerve entraption. He hits a pain level of 8, 3 or 4 days a week and is a 6 most days. He has had neck injuries in the past. Has had multiple MRIs of neck and arms, which show one bulging disk in the neck. Had the steroid injections in the cervical area with no effect.

Hello,
I have studied your case. I think that he might be having nerve compression and that is causing so much pain. If medicines are not effective then we should plan for surgery. Removal of disc will take care of his severe pain and he will be relieved. Till he get his surgery dons he should wear cervical collar and take pregabalin M tablet at night time. He should avoid driving . Steroid orally can be taken if injections are not effective.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. let me know if there is any other followup questions. thanks
