Yes I received an electrical shock from a wire sticking out of the wall. And it locked me there till I was able to break free. And now I have pain up through my arm now for over a Month. Even when I shake someone s hand I have to do it delicately. It hurts bad

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pain in the arms due to electrical shock from a wire . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query , but in your case the symptoms are due to electric shock . I would suggest you to visit emergency department for proper checkup . At the Emergency Department, the doctor's primary concern is to determine if significant unseen injury exists. Injury may occur to muscles, the heart, or the brain from the electricity . Doctor may order ECG to check the heart , complete blood count and urine test for muscle enzymes and treat accordingly . Doctor may order analgesic and neurotropic like pregabalin and methylcobalamin medication along with physical therapy .


Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
