What Causes Pain In The Left Side Of Chest And Right Arm?

Hello Doctor Rynne...I have been experiencing many aches and pains of late. It really hurts when I lift anything with my right arm, and I regularly get pain on the left side of my chest. What could be the causes of these ailments? I would appreciate any type of insight to these niggly problems before making an appointment to see my G.P.
