I went to my normal MD and she said it would take a couple of months.. this happen in late April. for the most part the pain is gone but now at times it feels like my arm gets numb and tingles..

Hello,
Arm numbness and tingling over a period of time should not be neglected. There are possible issues such as
- Cervical spondylosis
- Trauma
- Undiagnosed sprain or impingement of rotator cuff
The MRI or nerve conduction study are best possible tool to get them evaluated in best way.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
