A member asked:

Sudden pain and loss of strength in arms due to deconditioning?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Sudden anything is not deconditioning- that takes a long time. Sudden pain and loss of strength needs prompt evaluation. You need to see your family md as soon as possible or it may become permanent. Please do not delay.
