Have had severe neck and upper arm pain for a week. I can barely raise my arm because of pain, it also goes down to my hand. The pain is so bad when I lay down that I can t sleep no matter how I lay. I also have ruptured discs c4-c7 in neck and osteoarthritis in all joints. I have had carpal tunnel surgeries with dequarvein ( sorry for spelling) tendonitist on both arms and cmc joint.
Hi, Thanks for your query. Severe neck and arm pain seems to be due to osteoarthritis or nerve compression. Physiotherapy will be helpful. Do hot fomentation and apply muscle relaxant gel. Hope this helps you. Warm regards
