What Causes Pain In The Neck,shoulder And Elbow Area?

Hi, I am having off and on pain down the back of my left arm to the elbow area. It isn t every day that it happens. It sometimes goes into the neck and shoulder blade area. I was wondering if it could possible be a pinched nerve and could be helped by seeing a chiropractor or if I should see an orthopedic person.

Thank you very much for contacting healthcare magic.

You have problem of pain at shoulder ,elbow and back that may be because of cervical spondilitis..

By disc prolapse may cause compression of nerve that may cause pain at shoulder and neck area.

MRI is helpful for further diagnosis.
Consent a physician for further diagnosis.
Proper physical examination and history give exact idea..

I hope my guidance is helpful to you.
