A member asked:

Odd question: if i have nerve or muscle problem in my right thigh/hip, would i feel any effects in my right arm or shoulder?

Dr. Olav Jaren answered

No: The only way this could occur is if the location of the problem was on the left side of the brain or the spinal cord of your neck (cervical) level. In both cases, you might have symptoms on the entire right side. Problems in the right leg/hip/lumbar spine could not affect your arm.
