What Causes Severe Pain In The Left Shoulder And Arm?

My husband had surgery for carpal tunnel on his right hand and needs the same on the left. He is having severe pain in his left shoulder and arm. HE was given only arthritis meds that don t help the pain. He has also been having a problem with constipation. Could this be contributing to his pain? His pain has bee so severe and constant that he is getting depressed and I am very worried. He has some Vicodin 325, but it does not help.
