What Causes Recurring Arm Pain With History Of Neck Surgeries?
in 2000 I had a car accident, I ve had two neck surgeries(2000 and 2007 c3,c4) because my left arm was in pain (forearm).but now the pain is back in the same place, I am seeing an orthopedic (bone and joint), because I feel it s the muscle I have no strength( I can not even brush my teeth or hair without pain) in this arm . should I be seeing a neurologist?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, looking to the history given here this is the spinal injury so obviously it is directly related with nervous system, if you do have some pain in your arm so this is most advisable to have opinion from neurologist, to rule out some neurological pathologies or injury, hope this information helps, take care.
