A member asked:

Why would my 7 year healed arm sudddenly start to hurt?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Joint injury: After seven years, pain returning to a limb often signifies arthritis. If the injury injured the joint surface, time and wear often continue to injure the joint until it finally is too worn. When the joint surface is wearing away, it is called arthritis. It manifests with swelling, pain with motion, and morning stiffness. That is the most usual reason injuries start to hurt later.
