Please, how can I help my arm, it's really sore?!


Question: Please, how can I help my arm, it's really sore!?
No, I haven't done anything physical!. No, it's not carpal tunnel!. No, I didn't sleep on it!. (It's my right arm and lately I've been sleeping on my left!.) Underneath my arm it's been tingling and feeling weak and sore for days!. The pain used to come and go usually when I hold on to pencils or something for a while, but now it won't go away and feels worse and as if it's traveling up my arm to my hand and then fingers!. I really don't know what's going on or how to make it stop hurting!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You say it's not carpal tunnel but that's what it sounds like!. It could be you have stenosis ( narrowing) in the wrist, elbow or shoulder!. You should talk to your doctor but he/she may suggest you take an OTC anti-inflammatory drug such as advil or aleve in the AM and PM!. You can also try putting ice on the shoulder, elbow or wrist too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
