What Causes Tightness And Heaviness On Upper Arm?

i am trying to lay down to sleep. I am tired but the inside of my upper arms feels tight and my arms feel heavy. I almost feel like climbing out of myself inside. I am calm. I have no anger and am not upset about anything. Just finished having a great day with my family. I am male and almost 48 years old. My circulation in my arms feels restricted.

Hello,

Consult a pain physician and get evaluated. An ECG is required to rule out cardiac causes like angina even though it is unlikely.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
