My Arm Hurts

[ScaredCaz]

Hi

My left arm hurts had it for a while now i have this left side pain had that for months dont know if it is related the top of my arm feels cold but it hurts like aches not sharp pain or anything it always seems worse when i have showered and used my arm to wash myself and my hair etc

It scares me my HA is related to my heart please anyone?

It sounds to me like it's muscle-related because you say it tends to be worse when you've used your arm but you could always get it checked out if it continues to bother/worry you. I'm not a doctor but angina tends to come on very suddenly and is generally sharper and more intense than an ache but as I said, you should get it checked out. You can always call NHS Direct to put your mind at rest.

Let us know how you get on.
Ive been getting pains in my arms the last couple of weeks. But mine is more jabbing pains one minute then an aching the next. But comes & goes. Mines mostly the elbow upwards, so I assume its muscular x
