Suggest Remedy For Pain In Arms

Good evening.About 2 months ago, I started to experience a pain in my left arm. It lasts about 30 seconds, and feels like someone is sticking a hot needle in my arm. It s always in the same place (inside upper arm and just below my bicep, but just above where the joint/veins are) These attacks can happen over a dozen times a day, but more noticeable at night, when I m relaxing.I m male aged 45.Thanks Shane.

Hi,
Thanks for your query.
Due to compression of nerve root in cervical spine there is tingling numbness and pain associated with it.
I will advise you to MRI cervical spine for better diagnosis.

For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic like pregabalin and methylcobalamin medication can be started consulting your doctor.
Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can consult physiotherapist for help.

I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
