Upper arm pain

For a few months I experience upper arm pain close to my shoulders when I lift my arms up.  At the same time I have a constant sinus infection. Can there be any connection? What doctor should I see for my arms/shoulders?

Second question. I was taking Selexa for two weeks and I got a bad skin rash. I stopped taking Selexa three weeks ago but rash doesn't go away. What can be the reason?

Hello!

Selexa, citalopram, an antidepressant compound used in the treatment of major depressive disorder, administered orally and should only be taken with prescription. Citalopram for your information does not cause skin rash. You should take anti histamines for the allergy and skin rash.

Pain in shoulders should be diagnosed properly and I suggest you to visit an orthopedician for examination. Follow up your sinus infection with an ENT, take all precautions and avoid all allergens.

Take care!
