What Causes Pain In The Right Arm?

My husband s arm is hurting . It s his right arm just below his armpit. He was sleeping on his stomach last night with his arm dangling over the side of the bed. When he woke up this morning it was almost like his arm had fallen asleep. I had him take two Advil before he went to work, but the pain continued through the day. He had pan ice pack on his arm now and that seems to be helping.

Hi welcome to health care magic....

Here according to history this arm pain after wake up from bad is from muscular strain pain....
So this is related to abnormal sleep posture ..
You can give him brufen 200 mg tablet for three to four days
Avoid strenous work...
Avoid movement that causing pain
Take sleep in supine position...

If still it is not improving than neurological examination done

Take care

Advise : Orthopedic surgeon consultation for examination....
