What Could Cause A Serious Pain In The Neck For An Asthma Patient?

I have been bothered with a serious pain in my neck(right side)along with a pain in my right arm that feels like something is pulling the muscle in my arm(the pain is on inside of arm,above the elbow). I haven't been to a doctor for anything but the acute asthma that I've had a hard time regulating but I will have insurance beginning February. This has really been bothering me and I would like an answer please.

hi, pain in hand and asthma are unrelated. you may be having associated disc disease in your cervical spine that is causing impingement of nerves, causing pain in your hand. next time you visit your doc, ask for a neck x ray. An important suggestion- donot use pain killers with out consultation as they exacerbate your asthma. hope this helped.
