Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Upper Arm
I am having pain in my upper arm. It feels like its coming from about half way between elbow and shoulder. sometimes quite sharp. Mainly at night it is worse. If I chang position and lay on my back it feels better. However still feel uncomfortable. feel it during day but not as bad. It does radiate somtimes, but seems centered in middle of upper arm. I have not had any recent injuries

Sir,
Such pains usually originate from spine or local muscles. Since your pain also radiates it means that it is of spinal origin. You need screening of your cervical spine, a good examination and MRI are must.
