Electric Shock In Left Arm.

Ive been having small electric shock feelings down the inside of my left arm, lately I'm getting the feeling as if a rushing feeling to my heart. it's only for a split second but my arm still hurts for most of the day afterwards. it's not a dull ache it's more of an "electric shock" feeling. I've had no injuries i've got no chest pains , but it seems to be more frequent.

You seem to be having angina kind of problem.. do not ignore your symptoms, get an ECG done immediately to rule out any heart related problems. .meet your family doc or report your symptoms to him for better guidance.
