What Causes Pain And Numbness In The Arm After An Injury?
I fell down the stairs couple months ago. Didn t have any bad pain until I left my seasonal job and started staying home with kids more oftrn. Now feels like should blade is being ripped apart get worse when moved. I ve been putting off going to Dr because I have two small children and my husband works 12+ hours a day. Sometimes arm will go numb with sever pain in shoulder blade area and travels down arm also travels up left side of neck. Sometimes causing migraine.
You might have suffered a minor nerve injury and it will give rise to the symptoms. It does not seems like a major one and thus improve well with conservative management. Better to consult an orthopedic surgeon and get an MRI scan done for further assessment.
