During the past month or so, I have been having intermittent pain in my right shoulder, and the grip in my right hand has been very weak. The pain is not so bad that I cant stand it, but when it is there, it is difficult for me to think of anything else. At these times, I have trouble raising my arm above shoulder level Occasionally, I have the same problem in my left arm and shoulder. Do you suppose I might have arthritis? A. The most common conditions indicated by arm and shoulder pain are arthritis, bursitis, neuralgia, radiculitis, neuritis, circulatory changes, muscular weakness, paralysis (partial or complete), incoordination and tremors. The degree of pain may vary between slight and exintermittent to and constant, cruciating but dont be fooled by the degree of pain-- . . . sometimes a slight pain goes along with a serious condition while intense pain may be a symptom of nothing more than temporary muscle soreness caused by a weekend of unusual activity. Arm and shoulder pain can have a number of causes, but the vast percentage of cases are caused by misalignment of one or more spinal bones (vertebrae), improper posture, spinal curvatures, occupational stresses, or injury to the spine. Many times the sufferer of arm and shoulder pain was born with a spinal defect. Any of these conditions may cause irritation or impingement of nerves supplying the arms, shoulder, and neck. Whether the problem is serious or not, the pain can become quite debilitating, and you should see someone who is eminently qualified to correct arm and shoulder problems. . . your doctor of chiropractic.
