What Causes Dull, Achy Feeling In Arms And Legs?

I have a dull achy feeling on my left arm and left leg. I dismissed it at first, several weeks ago, but now I m wondering what is really going on with this strange feeling. I am 37 year old female, weighing 125 lbs. April of 2011 I had a strange heaviness in my chest, primarily on the left side and was diagnosed with chondritis.

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

Dull achy feeling in any body part may be because of insufficient blood supply to that part. Since in this particular case involvement is limited to one half of the body, it is not possible to have a vascular block only on one side. This is likely because of nerve compression or bad posture.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Rohan Shanker Tiwari, Orthopedic Surgeon
