Question 1

my muscles in my left arm constantly ache pain shoots through it what can it be?

Accepted Answer

Referred pain from: shoulder if its the one that you had surgery on. Other things that cause left arm pain are Parsonage Turner syndrome (inflammation of brachial plexus) Ulnar neuropathy, cervical radiculopathy, angina, and pleuritic pain (usually there are other symptoms to go along with the arm pain with the latter two) Have it looked at.

Question 2

what to do if i have a soccer game tomorrow and my arm muscles are sore..?

Accepted Answer

If arms are sore: In soccer, if your arms are sore you're probably ok to play.  Try to limit contact, throw ins and if your a goalie, roll or pass the ball out of your possession.

Question 3

is it healthy to go run while my chest and arm muscles are still sore from working out?

Accepted Answer

Yes in my opinion: I think it is a great idea to alternate muscle groups in the course of a fitness program. The soreness is likely attributable to anaerobic metabolism or Lactic Acid buildup. If it does not resolve within a few days, it could be due to injury. In the meantime i see no contraindications to aerobic or lower body workouts performed in a reasonable fashion.

Question 4

why do the muscles in my arm feet sore but i don't work them out or did any activities with them?

Accepted Answer

Relax: Assuming "arm feet:" is "arm feels", you might be firing your mussels inadvertently like a stiff neck .
Stop and do some stretching

Question 5

pain and aches in my left shoulder blade, neck and arm. feels like my arm muscles are pulling, when i turn my neck or rotate my arm.?

Accepted Answer

Pinched nerve: Because patients having cardiac problems can have these symptoms, you should have this ruled out.  But the most common cause is an irritation of a nerve in the neck by a bone spur or herniation that can cause pain or numbness that runs down the arm into the hand.  An MRI can usually show the cause of the problem if it does not resolve.  Thank you for the question.

Question 6

ache in my top right side of my back hurts to lift arm i think it's pulled muscle how long to heal and should i not excercise with it?

Accepted Answer

Tincture of time: A pulled muscle is the presence of "micro-tears" among some of the fibers within that muscle.  They cause a certain amount of swelling, which causes the pain.  Depending on the severity of the injury and the age and medical status of the patient, these symptoms can last from a few days to a few weeks.  Allow it to heal rather than continue to injure it with more activation of the muscle.

Question 7

what would cause my arm muscles in particular to fatigue very easily? i don't think i've lost actual strength, but they get sore quickly with use.

Accepted Answer

Muscular pain: Either due to lack of fitness, or due to local factors like pressure on nerves of ligaments (especially if the condition is affecting one side) or due to more systemic illness (if more than one place of muscles is affected).
I would like to suggest to see your doctor for further assessment and investigations as necessary.

Question 8

why my arms muscles feel sore ? especially when i grasp my hands

Accepted Answer

More Info: Need more information. Forearms or upper arm? Have you been exercising more than usual? Any other symptoms? Any other medical illnesses?, etc.

Question 9

my chest area on my left hurts. it feels like i pulled a muscle and hurts sometimes when i touch it. i did nothing strenuous and its been happening from time to time. can you be signs of heart issues? sometimes my arm feels sore. what do you think?

Accepted Answer

: If it hurts when you touch your chest, then this is chest wall discomfort, not cardiac. There are muscles, cartilage and bone that can all be the etiology of discomfort. Possibilities include a pulled muscle, inflamed cartilage or a bone bruise or even fracture A pulled muscle on your chest wall can occur without strenuous activity-even a sleeping position can result in a pulled muscle.

Question 10

have shoulder pain and sore muscles in arms im wondering if its cold shoulder as im getting electric shocks down my muscles?

Accepted Answer

: Those symptoms seem consistent with either cervical plexus neuropathy due to cervical spine problem or shoulder impingement syndrome. You can use local heat pad + OTC ibuprofen or naproxen every 6-8 hours for a couple days (if no contraindication with NSAID). If symptoms persist, you should be evaluated by an orthopedist.
