See a rheumatologist: It is difficult to provide specific answers without being able to examine you. However, you should see a rheumatologist for the cause and best treatment options.

Spine vs Extremities: There is the possibility this arm pain could be coming from the neck, however the other options include peripheral nerve entrapments, carpal tunnel and ulnar tunnel syndromes. In order to narrow down the possibilities we would need more info. If concerned, please see your doctor to further evaluate you.
