What Causes Severe Pain In The Left Wrist And Shoulder?

I have been experiencing severe pain (nerve) in my left shoulder/elbow/wrist for the past 8-9 weeks. The pain has increased over the period of time. I have limited use of my arm (only in front of my body). I cannot reach behind my torso, if I do, it is extreme severe pain in should joint. I have had neck injury (whiplash) in the past and was wondering if this could be coming from a potential bulging disc. I ve received chiropractic adjustment, but it doesn t affect my shoulder/elbow/wrist.
