Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my husband has been complaining about his upper arm pain close to his rotator cuff and today he have been getting sharp zap of charges across his chest like 3 at a time like an electric shock. he has an appointment tomorrow. but I am worried about him. he says he can wait until tomorrow.
You may be suffering from cervical spondylosis with radiculopathy pain. It may be rotator cuff injury. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Use cold and warm compression. Use NSAIDS if necessary. If symptoms not improved please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu,
