A member asked:
Emg indicates symptoms are from severe carpal tunnel & mild cubital syndrome not coming from neck. could either of these syndromes cause shoulder and upper back pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe in part as carpal tunnel syndrome can refer to shoulder but would not affect upper back. However, brachial plexitis might explain this. Discuss with your doctor
