It’s easy to take our arms for granted from time to time – from our shoulders to our elbows, wrists and hands, our arms allow us to perform countless hours of work and activities when in proper working condition.
Generally, pain in the arms or shoulders is caused simply by overuse, or when trauma is involved resulting in a fracture. Common issues include:
- Pinched Nerve
- Tennis Elbow
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Rotator Cuff Tear
- Tendinitis
- Fractures
Pain anywhere in the arm is generally a strong indicator that a doctor should be consulted. The issue should be properly diagnosed, especially if tingling, numbness, or weakness in the arm is also present.
