Slammed Upper Left Back/shoulder Too Hard, Extreme Pain, Burning, Tingling In Left Arm. Any Suggestions ?
Yesterday I was putting things away in the fridge and stood up quickly and the freezer door was open...I slammed my upper Left back/ shoulder into it HARD. A few hours later I have had extreme pain, burning, tingling in my left arm . These symptoms have lasted, getting increasingly worse for 24 hours with no relief. I ve done ice, heat,tried to reposition for comfort to no avail. Any suggestions on what to do or if it will just get better in time?

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
It seems that you are having hard heat causing strain on your shoulder and left arm.
Nothing to worry within 2-3 days you will be alright.
Take some analgesic, muscle relaxant medicine as and when required.
Apply some analgesic cream on the part.
Ok and bye.
