Question 3

i went to hospital last monday for pain in neck and shoulder said it was cervical radiculopathy they gave meds but pain is worse under shoulder blade and right arm?

Accepted Answer

It happens: A radiculopathy is just a generic label for irritation of a nerve root/nerve distribution often after something as simple as a cold. Antibodies to that virus mistakenly attack a nerve thinking they are getting rid of the virus.They do so until they die off over time. You may experience pain initially &amp; transient weakness in that arm. Your regular doc can do follow up. Oral steroids can help.

Depends on cause: Musculoskeletal problems can give you neck pain (strain, joints, arthritis, pinched nerve)  but many other things can "refer" pain to the neck (heart, reflux, lung, teeth, ears etc)  -- this means the problem is somewhere else but the brain feels it in the neck.  Best to see an md who can help you isolate the cause and arrive at a solution.  In the mean time, stretch, heat, relaxation may help.
