A member asked:

I am experiencing left upper arm pain that comes and goes every hour or so the following also describes me: high blood pressure (hypertension). what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See a doctor.: There are many possible causes of this pain. With hypertension you are risk for heart disease. What you describer is consistent with angina so I would take it as a priority to be evaluated by your physician.
