Left shoulder sprain
Continuous feeling of slight pain and uneasyness in my left shoulder which extends up to my left elbow. I always want to keep stretching the left shoulder and arm. I used to be a regular gym person and this problem has been since long. It gets really in comfortable after I do some heavy exercise. Please advise.
Hello,
Shoulder and elbow pain can be due to various reasons. It might be due to pain coming from your neck area or just the muscles around the shoulder and elbow.
More information on your symptoms will help us guide you. Meanwhile, avoid exercises that give you pain.
Thanks,

Hello sir pain radiates down the elbow in your case may be cause of tight shoulder muscles and mainly trigger point in those muscle specifically infraspinatus and subcapularis so consult a physiotherapist who couls help to relive the trigger points and guide proper way of exercises
