Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Pain In Arm And Shoulder When Diagnosed With Diabetes And Grave S Disease?
I am a 57 year old female, about 5 foot eight inches and weigh 255 lbs. I have noticed that my right collar bone is more pronounced or protruding than the left. I have pain in my upper right arm and back shoulder. I am diabetic (2000) and had Graves disease with radioactive iodine treatment in 1987. Thyroid is now hypo and am taking Synthroid. I used to have similar pain in left arm but it went away after a year or so. I was kind of hoping the right arm pain would go away, as well, but now wondering it the collar bone and pain could be related. Thank you in advance for your help.
As per my clinical experience, the pain in arm with shoulder ache do possibly pause various clinical disorders possible as: - Diabetic arthropathy involving large joints - Degenerative arthritis - Auto-immune disorder flare up - Cervical rib syndrome - Underlying nerve compression
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
