Please tell me if i should go to a doctor about my arm and shoulder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need more info: I would need more information, but in brief, if you have had shoulder pain for more than 10 - 14 days, i would get it looked at. If you have had a traumatic event, i would also go to the doctor. Finally, if the shoulder is red, hot or if you are having fevers/chills, i would go to the emergency room.
