What Causes Pain In Left Collar Bone Radiating Into Left Arm?

Hi I have had a battle for 4 days now with a stomach bug..I am slowly getting better but tonight I cannot seem to get to sleep cause my left collar bone in the front of my neck is painful and just a little ways down my left arm..I am thinking it is just because I have been in bed ALOT and all my muscles are just sore, I know my back is also..Also have a nasty taste in my mouth and belching alot even though I have not ate hardly at all in 4 days.. should I be concerned?? I am 55 years old and on blood pressure meds and also adult diabetic..Blood sugars have been running around 115.. Only been taking blood pressure meds at this time...thanks for your time!!! Laurie

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Sleeping position is one of the common causes of pain with the collarbone and arm.
So, I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain.
I also suggest gentle stretching exercises for relieve.
There is nothing to be worried.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
