What Does Backache Along With Pain In The Left Arm Indicate?
I think I got a bug bite but Im not sure. Monday afternoon, I had an ache in my back. It was along the left side of my spine and it really hurt to move my left arm I thought it was a muscle problem, but there was one place on the side of my neck that really hurt. My temp was slightly elevated, 99.5 This morning I saw a noticeable lump on my neck. Now it has almost doubled in size. I no longer have the pain in my back - it s completely gone, but don t know how urgent it is to get this looked at. Your advice?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Since the lump is increasing in size then it would be best for you to be assessed.
If it was decreasing in size or stable then you would have been able to monitor.
I hope this helps
