A member asked:

Have slight numbness on my right side shoulder end and also i have neck pain from long time do i have nervs prob?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May need formal eval: numbness in the lateral shoulder could be upper cervical or peripheral Axillary nerve dysfunction. If there is no associated weakness it is not an emergency . I would suggest a evaluation with neurology or PM&R.
