Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Does The Pain On My Arms, Hands And Neck Indicate?
Hello, I have major aching in my arms hands and sometimes my neck. I went to a doctor about 4 years at because I would wake up crying in pain, he thought that I was pain med seeking. He gave me arm braces and suggested that I sleep with them. They do not help. I am in a lot of pain with it roughly three to four nights out of the week. I am concerned because I lost both of my parents to Cancer, my mother was 37 when she had bone cancer. I am 37 now. I do not have medical insurance. What do I do?
Based on the given description, I suspect that there could be some problem in the cervical spine (possibly a herniated intervertebral disc) causing you symptoms.
An xray and MRI scan of the cervical spine will help in arriving at a diagnosis.
I suggest you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for further evaluation and management.
Hope this information is helpful. Good day
