I have sharp shooting pain down my left arm most of the time were my left hand and arm ,especially my left hand thumb is numb and tingly.severe pai8n constantly what could this be?
What I can infer from what you have told is that you are having an acute cervical strain. I would suggest you take some analgesics of the pain is troubling you. I would suggest you wait for 48 hours and if the pain and tingling still persist then visit a physician.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
