My dad is 66 and he has never been to the doctors or hospital, never needed antibiotics, never had blood tests, etc. Throughout his whole life, he has smoked tobacco and cigarettes and his diet is appalling.. Disgusting, in fact! He never eats fruit or vegetables, he eats fried stuff all the time: eggs, chips, bacon, sausages, pork pies, biscuits, cheese etc. We have tried to introduce vegetables but he will have NONE of it! He said he hates it and he is lazy. He stays in bed until gone 3 in the afternoon so he is ever active. I was thinking of buying him a dog just so he can get out and walk it but he isn't allowed pets in his rented flat.
For the past two months, he said he has been getting dull ache in his right arm that sometimes hurts his shoulder, bicep and elbow. He constantly puts heat pad on it and takes painkillers. Because of his smoking, his diet and his age... I am so worried that this is very sinister. I have told him but he said it is a pulled muscle? I said does his back, jaw or chest hurt and he said no, just his right arm!
I am scared for my dad but he won't listen :( what do you think it could be if I am wrong?
