This was very helpful, thank you both It gives me places to look.
There is another very long post under "undiagnosed symptoms" forum and many people are having very similar pain.
I am trying to find help for pain in upper arm right about where you would receive a shot as well as upper shoulder.
I can not reach behind me at all without severe shoulder pain, can't sleep on my side without horrible arm pain.
Thanks again
Hi there!
Well, without a detailed description of the symptoms or a detailed clinical evaluation it would be difficult to comment specifically on the situation, the pain could be related to infections, inflammation, injuries to muscles/ ligaments/ tendons, neuro-muscular causes, vascular issues, increased compartment pressure etc. If the symptoms do not seem to get better in a week or two, I would suggest considering a review with your treating orthopedician for an evaluation of secondary issues and for suggestion of an appropriate management plan.
Hope this is helpful.
Take care!
