Pins And Needles In Left Hand, Sore Left Elbow. Done Health Checkup Months Back, Normal Results

For a few weeks I have experienced sporadic "pins and needles" in my left hand, minor soreness in my left elbow, and a more pronounced soreness in my left shoulder blade arrea. I am experiencing no other symptoms, and I had an annual physical approximately 6 weeks ago (prior to the onset of these symptoms) after which I received a clean bill of health. Any counsel?

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
There is pain ( pins & needles ) in the shoulder joint , elbow , and left hand .
All these symptoms are an indication of early cervical spondilitis .
In my opinion consult a physiotherapist and get his opinion and consultation for treatment .
In this case this is a beginning of cervical spondilitis so resolves within a short period.
X ray of neck region will find out the cause . If necessary get in M RI .
Good luck. Dr. HET
