Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
~1/2 hr ago my husband started experiencing pain in his right arm from shoulder to finger tips. It is less painful now, but still very uncomfortable. It is more like a dull ache. Should we go to urgent care? We are about 1/2 hour drive from a doctor's facility.

As per your explanation. I suggest to visit doctor and get it checked properly. If there was a similar history of pain and numbness previously also then need to do mri of cervical spine too. And do check if he has headache and high blood pressure again. Don't get panic but yes one visit to doctor is must in heavy pain. Hope this was useful take care.
