Pain In Left Arm, Noticed Bump, Stiffness In Neck. What Can I Do?
Experiencing pain in my left arm that radiates down the arm to my fingers. There is also a noticeable bump about the size of a golf ball on the outer outside of the arm that is quite firm to the touch. Also have stiffness in my neck for the last four months. Are the two symptoms related and what do you recommend for the pain.

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
The bump should be examined by a surgeon.
Neck pain could be from spondylosis - you need X-rays and lab tests. That may be causing pressure on the nerves, leading to pain and stiffness. A neurologist will be the ideal one to approach
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
