Left Arm Pain caused by nerve damage ? DVT ? Posted: 11-07-07 11:42am
for about 3 months now i've been
experiencing left arm pain. the pain is
almost constant, especially when im trying
to sleep. its difficult for me to find a
comfortable position for my arm and it
wakes me up sometimes. occasionally i'll
find that my arm is numb and difficult to
move, even when im not asleep. do u think
this could be associated with some form of
nerve damage or do u think that this could
be a dvt? i mentioned it to my doctor but
he just kinda blew it off. do u think i
should have some venous dopplers done or
some other test to determine what the
cause of my pain may be?

hiya, my boyfriend has nerve damage in his
arm, it started when he broke his arm when
he was younger and never attented hospital
to get it sorted and now he has nerve
damage, he has bad pains, he tells me it
feels like tooth ache in his arm, it goes
dead some times, you are best going to see
the hospital for advice as i could be
giving you false information and worrying
you, have you broken your arm or damaged
it do you know? my boyfriend feels better
when it's rested in a sling, try it a see
how you feel. good luck if you go for a
check up. let me know. emz

I'm starting to feel left arm pain myself.
It happened last night and was the worst
it has ever felt. Before, it would just be
a kind of a nerve pinch like feeling in my
fingers but now it's made it's way up
above my elbow and last night spread to my
upper shoulder. Can anyone help? I see
this thread has gone unanswered for nearly
a year.
