What Causes Vein Pain From Shoulders To Arm?

My friend is experiencing vein pain. He had painful shoulders today and now feels something moving down his arm in the vein as if a clot, but it has only been today and he has not had something like it before, but it is causing him pain and discomfort.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Respected Sir, hi it seems that your friend is experiencing muscular pain which is radiating along certain nerve roots not veins pain. In my clinic I would suggest tab Ibuprofen with Paracetamol combination 3 times a day after meals but as these are prescription drugs you have to get it prescribed with your physician. avoid excess weight bearing by that shoulder and while resting keep check not to put excess weight over that part. leukwarm water fomentation 2-3 times a day will help to alleviate symptoms faster. hope this helps you dear thanks regards
