A member asked:
Sore muscles above and around left scapula that radiate down left arm just to above the elbow. could this be a pinched nerve? pain ends with pressure.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Absolutely: Although there are many potential causes, a pinched nerve in the neck seems most likely. An MRI of the neck can check for this and i would encourage you to be checked, thanks.
