A member asked:

If i cough really hard or vomit i get an awful pain in my brachial artery area of both upper arms while i cough, or vomit. an oddity that has happened only during these situation for the past 2 years. why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible disc diseas: Arm discomfort on coughing may be caused by a bulging intervertebral disc in the neck. An MRI of the neck verebrae would be the way to diagnose the problem. A neurologist or neurosurgeon could evaluate & advise you. Treatment for a disc impingeing on a nerve root is usually physical therapy with traction or surgery.
