What Causes Pain In The Arm And Middle Finger?

From the top of my arm down to the middle finger constantly is in pain. I worked construct most of my life and used a screw gun pulling the trigger with my right middle finger. Must have put hundreds of thousands of screws into drywall. Is it possible this is a symptom of my past work?

Hi,

Sorry to hear of your pain. This probably is caused by some nerve treatment mostly on the neck. This may be related to your job or may not be. It must not be very serious.

You can be helped by physiotherapy a lot. However, before this, we must make sure to diagnose the problem. This may need an Mri or a nerve test. So talk to your doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
