What Causes Pain In Arm And Neck?

Hi, I was having a sharp pain on inside of right arm (my main writing/mouse hand) and now today I am having a sharp pain with a little dullness in my neck on the right side. I am afraid of clots and things, but don t want to overreact with an ER visit.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi
Welcome to HCM.
I appreciate your concern for the pain in the arm and neck.

If it is associated with numbness & altered sensation it could be due to inflammed nerves or a pinched nerve in the neck vertebrae.

I advise you to consult an orthopedic doctor for proper evaluation, an X ray of the neck vertebrae or MRI scan may have to be done to detect the cause.

Meanwhile take some NSAID pain killers along with Mecobalmin tablets.

Wishing you a very good health.
