I keep getting this hadr pain in my arm..............

Hi, You should consult doctor for this pain. Don't waste time. Get advice from doctor. You will be alright soon.

Sharp pain? dull pain? When I had elbow pain the first time it was tendinitis, the second time it was a stuck shoulder. See a doctor....

Sounds like something muscle related. Obviously I'm not a doctor and I wouldn't say don't visit one! You never know if it's something serious. But if it were heart-related, it seems to me that it would hurt regardless of position. You may have something that's rather out of whack and a certain position is putting pressure on a nerve. Or maybe your muscle is damaged and causing pain as you stretch. Try to deal with the pain and stretch the arm AS FAR as you can a few times, exercising it some. It will probably hurt, but if it's one of those "kinks," it might work itself out. I had a bad slipped disk a while ago and it caused compression on my nerves. Six months now and I still have spells of the nerve damage -- tightness in throat, pain in my fingers, tingling in my nose, etc. These pains aren't always life threatening. Many are just signs that we're getting older.

Sounds like a 'deep bruise' inflicted by overworking your arm or -wrist, coupled with what you sense when your blood-vessels have to fight gravity to get blood to your fingers. Am I close? Feel better

When I have muscle pains I go to the Chiropractor as many times it is just something that is out of alignment. If it doesn't go away then I go to the Dr.

sorry but i will give you same advice with others ,go to nearest doctor;) believe me in our life ,we sometimes get some pains and aches suddenly ,and all of them have reasons . we sometimes never care and go with that,and try not to care,but it gets more and more so it means its serious, so i wanna say is;if it is painfull more than a week,you exactly have to go to doctor. happy mylotting my dear friend

I would be extremely concerned as you have stated it's your left hand, as your heart is on the left side, have you strained it, or laid on it? I would definitely seek medical advice from your GP, at least to put your mind at rest.

If the pain is getting worst, just see a doctor. You will need a treatment. Your hand is really important because you use to type keyboards. 1 more win for Lakers they will advance

Hello Maria, Does sound like a rotator cuff injury that is exactly how mine happened and it can take ages to heal. There is no pain like that one its absolute misery I know. You have to see someone a Specialist or your own Doctor for the pain at least. Can take ages to cure but now I can move my hand to my back again so don´t despair.xxx

hello there mariaperalta, i do also encounter some pains but its more on my back going down to my right shoulder. and i guess, its a part of growing older (kidding aside ) seriously, perhaps that pain resulted from muscle fatigue. maybe try to consult a physical therapy that can ease the pain through a massage.

Are you feeling some tingling sensation or pure pain? Maybe you just had your arm in a position for a long time that made your arm feel that way. have you tried wriggling it? Or did you carry anything heavy which might cause the strain? Try taking some analgesics. If the pain stays until after today, then have your arm checked.

It could be a pinched nerve or carpal tunnel syndrome. I would see a doctor. I have to go to the doctor also tomorrow. I have had this pain in the upper left side of my back near the shoulder. It feels as if someone is stabbing me. I am not sure if it is gas a a pinched nerve. So if I were you I would go to the doctors.

time to go have it looked I know that money is very hard to come by her in mexico but you want to be around a very long time for your son this could be one on many issues that you don't even know about take care and love to the family

maybe a pinched nerve? I'd have it checked out if it doesn't get better soon. I hope it gets better for you. Is that the only time it hurts? I have tendonitis and it hurts a lot. Maybe it's something similar.

If it hurts when you do that, then don't do that! Seriously, I had a doctor tell me that... HA! HA! Does it matter HOW you lift it over your head? Like, it doesn't hurt so bad if you hold it close to the body while you lift it but hurts really bad if you have your arm stretched out when you do it? I know what I would do. I would go to my doctor (not the one who told me the above, I stopped going to him right after that!) It sounds to this lay person that it might be a nerve pinched, probably in the neck.

Maybe you need to massage it I used to feel that way too and I just go to massage therapist and everything is well after he massage me two times

Hope you've visited a doctor already to find out what could be the reason for having the pain. Give us some update then

I agree with them who say you have to visit a doctor. I expect it won't be something that causes that you can not do well your job. Anyway I wish you luck and good recovering.

I think , its a nerve related pain.. because I was like that before and till now I'm taking b complex vitamins for my nerve.. To make it sure consult your doctor.

One of my parents actually had a similar problem. However, the pain did not come from just that position that you described, but rather any hand movement in general. It is called spontalouses. You can read about this on the internet. He had this problem for a long time, but I can't even remember what remedies he took to ease this pain. I hope you get better though. Hands are probably the worst are to have pain, especially since one uses them to type on mylot!
