Please can anyone talk me down?
I’ve had a burning pain in my upper arm for about 8 months now. At first I brushed it off as nothing, thinking I was just sleeping on it funny. But now, after all these months, I’m worrying it could be something more sinister…like bone mets.
The pain happens if I use my arm in certain ways, like trying to itch my back, push the toaster latch down, or lift my arm above shoulder height. Sometimes I hear my shoulder click, but not often.
I’m worried that no injury should still be painful after all these months, so it must be something more serious.
I have had some breast issues which are being followed up over a series of months, so now I’m scared that my arm pain could be a symptom of secondary cancer associated with my breast issues.
Does anyone have any knowledge of arm/shoulder issues that can be ongoing for so long and still be benign?
