A member asked:

My left arm is seriously hurt, especially elbow down. i did not have any injury. can i have blood clot in my arm?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly: But left arm pain at age 50 is a chest pain equivalent and should be checked out to see if it is originating at your heart. See a doctor as soon as possible and, if there's no reason not to, take some Aspirin on your way to see them.
