Why Am I Having Excruciating Pain In My Arms?

Both of my arms hurt as a result of both air bags deploying during a car accident (five years ago). The right arm hurts more than the left, however the left is getting worse over time. I've been diagnosed with whip lash by a neurologist, with most of the damaged being done to my right side. The pain I am experiencing in my arms is deep in the muscle tissue. It hurts to lift my arms (again the right is worse than the left at the moment - any motion moving above my shoulder provides me with excruciating pain.... so far to real answers - based on the little I've given you what might be at issue with the deep pain I feel in my arms?
