Suggest Treatment For Pain In Upper Arm And Spine
I have pain in my left upper arm. There is some pain in upper spine also. Seen doctors several times. They advised physiotherapy (Hot pack, IFT and exercise ) and muscle relaxant ointments and Etoshine MR tablets. Pain reduces a bit after physiotherapy for 3-4 weeks but again reappears. Need some advice.

Hello,
Since the symptoms are getting recurrent a correct diagnosis of your condition is necessary.
This way treatment ways should be clear. Degenerative spine disease, herniated disc disease, spondylolisthesis, etc. are conditions to consider in cases like yours.
A neurological examination and cervical spine MRI are necessary.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
