What Causes Pain Between The Shoulder And Elbow Of The Right Arm?

I am experiencing arm pain, specifically my muscle between the shoulder and elbow only on my right arm. Feels like a muscle cramp, but does not go away like a cramp would. It started yesterday suddenly and lessened just a little over night. Could this be a side effect from a blood pressure drug, atenolol that I have been taking for several months?

Hi,

This does not look to be related to the drug. This is more likely to be some muscle soreness which may occur with bad postures or weight lifting.

Don't worry, use some heat pads along with some painkiller like Ibuprofen if needed. It would settle in a few days.

Hope I have answered your question. I will be glad to answer any further question about this.
