This is not an : Uncommon compaint as the shoulder pain can refer into this area or you may even have an undiagnosed spine problem as well as these two conditions frequently present together. Sometimes, a sceondary muscular spine issue can develop as a result of altered use of te arm due to the impingement. Treatment depends on the exact cause so you should see your doctor concerning this if it does not resolve.
