Hi, My Name Is Richard I've Been Dealing With A

Hi, my name is Richard
I've been dealing with a pain for the past 3 - 4 days between my neck and shoulder area on the left side. I'm starting to feel weakness and numbness in my left arm and some pain to a point where I can't push myself up and numbness in my thumb, index, and middle finger. It's hard to lie down or sit for some time, when I go to rise from any of those positions there's and sharp sudden pain between the neck and shoulder area. I kept telling myself that it's a pinch nerve, but sometimes the source of the pain seems like if it's coming from the cyst I have on my back between my shoulder blades. Could all this be from a pinch nerve, and if it is how long does it last, or is it from the cyst on my back.
