A member asked:

I popped my arm and now i have a pain shooting up from my arm to my head. i hav. headach?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Referred pai: It seems you have hurt some tendon or ligament in your arm /shoulder. The pain from these regions can radiate to the neck and head. See your pcp or a physical therapist. A good history and exam should be able to find the cause and guide treatment
