Hi Anxietytroll, It sounds like you may be experiencing muscle knots/spasms in your neck and shoulder due to anxiety. Just because it's on the left side doesn't automatically mean it's coming from the heart. Try putting some heat on your shoulder and neck and try to relax. It may be all that is needed. It doesn't really warrant going to the ER unless your symptoms worsen. Take care.

Hi Anxietyroll. I am experiencing the exact same thing, wow !! And it's my left shoulder also. I can barely move it. My doc told me that I have bursitis, put ice on for 30 minutes, leave it off for an hour, then put back on for 30 minutes, at least 3 are 4 times a day. The pain first started in both sides of my neck. I also was prescribed Meloxicam, but ibuprofen are any other imflamation medicine should help if you done have a prescribed medication from your doctor. I hope this information helps you. This may , are may not have anything to do with anxiety . In your spare time look up bursitis. I hope this helps.

Thanks valachia-t I just looked it up! Its not swollen or anything just hurts really bad! 😕 probably from work and toting in groceries I've tried an ice pack now on to some heat

I have the same thing. I can't lift my left arm above my ear. I went to the doctor yesterday and he gave me a trigger point injection into my muscle. Hopefully it will help

The back of my neck hurt so bad because of anxiety and looking down on my phone. I massage and used vapor rub. As soon as my anxiety went away my neck pain disappear but now it hurts sometimes because I''m looking down at my phone lol
