Painful left arm

[carla-toby30]

Hi folks

Does anybody else suffer from acute spells of a painful left arm and shoulder in stressful situations I have noticed this increasingly the pain radiates from shoulder down arm to hands and fingers

[Cwoods]

I do get that as well

[JessNY]

I too suffer from this, pretty much all the time. My hands fall asleep too depending on how I have them positioned when I'm lying down. I also have a tendency to lean on my elbow when I'm sitting watching TV and on my iPad which makes the whole painful left arm thing much worse.

I have been having these symptoms more this past week its like burning sharp pains in my shoulder than my arm will start to feel heavy followed by sudden numbness in my pinky and middle finger.

Same here. I suspected a lurgy that has lasted two months. Other aching pains through out my body. Debilitating at times, like now. Doctor did not think so. Tennis Elbow & Frozen Shoulder diagnosed. Possible repetitive strain injury from excessive cycling? Age 63. See also:

I have suffer with this for about 10 years I finally when to the doc he gave me a Cortizone injection that was in June on this year 2015 the pain relief was instant but I the last few weeks pain has come back I was told this was due to a calcium buildup in the joint of my shoulder so I will be going back to see if I can have key joke surgery to stop this pain go c your doctors everyone hope this helps .
