Question : severe pain down the inside of my left arm last 2 minutes
Brief Answer:
Considerations.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for the query.
left arm pain can be a sign of a problem with blood flow to your heart or a heart attack.
if you have no explanation for the pain, would recommend that you have this assessed as soon as possible at your local ER. doctors can do some quick testing to help find the cause of your pain.
In this type of scenario would recommend playing it safe rather than dismissing the symptoms until someone can assess you.
