Hello,
Causes of referred shoulder pain may include: Abdominal problems, such as gallstones or pancreatitis.
Pelvic problems, such as a ruptured ovarian cyst. Heart or blood vessel problems in which pain is more often felt in the left arm and shoulder, such as heart attack or inflammation around the heart (pericarditis).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Esmeralda Sera, Oncologist
