A member asked:
Im dealing with consistent left shoulder pain. quick search reveals all kinds of terrifying heart related issues, but its consistent, not getting worse, and not with any other symptoms. shoulder strain or something more concerning?

Most likely the ongoing shoulder issues represent joint problems, perhaps tendonitis, bursitis, or even rotator cuff tear. But you are correct that cardiac discomfort can be referred pain into left arm. Have your doctor sort out the situation, obtain appropriate testing and provide a therapeutic pathway.
