What Causes Pain In Arms, Top Of Back, Neck And Wrist After Hysterectomy?

I had a partial hysterectomy 17 days ago. 9 days ago I developed pain in my right arm from my shoulder to my elbow. Now the pain is in both arms, the top of my back, neck and my left wrist. I went to the ER but was dismissed with no answer. Nothing has helped with the pain. What could the pain likely be coming from?

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Hello,
I have studied your case. I do not think that it is related to your surgery directly. But post surgery there are chances of weakness and feeling of tingling and numbness.
I would suggest you to meet your doctor and get your serum B 12 estimation done. You should also get your spine x ray to see if your bone quality is good enough .
I would recommend you to take tablet pregabalin and methyl cobal daily.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know If there is any other followup questions.
Thanks
