Question 1

causes of intermittent hand and shoulder pain together?

Accepted Answer

Some ideas: Carpel Tunnel Syndrome can give hand and shoulder symptoms- usually more symptomatic at night.   With trauma you can injure your neck and have referred pain that you feel in shoulder and hand.  It is a common combination for those who suffer paralysis from a stroke - but not usual in someone your age.  You will need a Neurologist or Physical Medicine Doctor to sort it out if it persists- Good luck
