Hello,
As per your clinical history is concerned your problem is due to brachial plexus injury so you need a physical examination by an orthopedic doctor in your area. He will do a detailed examination of your arm and start with conservative treatment for few weeks and if it does not solve your problem then he will repair it in surgical procedure and it is a minor procedure. So nothing to be worried at all.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
