What Causes A Squeezing Feeling In Arm?

Hi, a few years back 2003-2004 I had squeezing in my right arm, like a vice. Now it is back. I m 53 now, good health, normal BP, exercise regularly, stellar blood levels ( I m vegetarian). I m having the squeeze as I m writing this. It comes and goes. Hormone flucuations? Thanks

Hi,

It could be a vascular cause like a peripheral occlusive vascular disease. Consult a physician and get evaluated. A detailed evaluation is required including an arterial Doppler.

Probable causes like peripheral neuropathy also have to be looked for.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
