Both shoulders extremes pain when reaching and raising arms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
New, sudden pain?: Do you feel weak as well lifting arms? How about pain and weakness in the hips, for example when you try to get out of a chair without using arms for assistance? There is an illness called PMR which can cause these symptoms and a blood test can help see if this is what you may have - a sedimentation rate. It may also be shoulder pain due to arthritis or rotator cuff issues.
