Have A Very Slight Ache On Jaw, Neck, And Upper Arm. What Might Be The Cause?
Question: I have a very slight ache on the left side of my jaw, neck, and upper arm. What might be the cause?
Brief Answer:
Myocardial infarction or Angina or Muscle pain
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome.
I am Dr.Manjeth XXXXXXX
If you are my patient, I will check your blood pressure and pulse.
Then i will order for ElectroCardioGram (ECG).
I will look for any changes for Myocardial infarction or Angina.
If there is any change, I will shift you to Emergency Room( ER) for further management.
It may also be due to Musculo-skeletal disorder.
But ruling out Myocardial infarction or angina is very important.
Because Time is crucial in Myocardial patients. Shifting earlier for Treatment room or Operation theatre can save your heart muscle from damage.
Hope this helps.
Please reply for further queries with reports.
Wishing you a good health.
