Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Upper Arm After Injury
I was in an accident and had intense pins and needles sensations down both arms. This sensation has lessened somewhat. The feeling was so strong that I originally thought there was damage to the electrical system in the car that was leaking current into my body. I also have pain in my upper arm near my shoulder. My neck now makes a crackling sensation when I turn my head side to side. Besides going to the doctor for xrays, do you have any helpful information on how severe this might be ?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is the pain condition and pain being started after the accident then that might be the reason of pain, it may be due soft tissue injury, and as long as the bone injuries are concern it is better to get done the x-ray or see the orthopedic surgeon till then pain can be managed with Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg three times in day hope this information helps.
