What Does Pain And Numbness Around Neck, Shoulder And Hand Indicate?
Every time I turn my head to the right my right arm goes numb. Then there is pain in my shoulder blade. If I push on the spot on my shoulder blade, the pain goes down, and I feel some minor pain in my neck but the numbness is still there. If I concentrate to turn my head left and slightly downward, the numbness subsides within a minute or soI m a 61 y/o male (ex Paramedic) without healthcare. Thank you. D
