What Causes Pain In The Left Arm?
I am a 57 year old woman in good health. I have been experiencing pain in my left arm up high and in my shoulder at times for the past 3-4 days. It seems to feel better when I am sleeping. My family worries it could be heart related, should I be concerned or assume it is a pulled muscle or nerve related?

Hello,
If you there is history of blood pressure, diabetes or any family history of heart diseases and if this pain occur off and on with other associated symptoms like weakness or swelling or cold sweats then I shall advise you to be concerned with it. In that case, you should get yourself investigated by your doctor earliest.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
