Hi, my left arm paining, just in between below shoulder and above elbow, the pain has been inconsistently for about 15 days now. It pains when i raise my upwards or backwards precisely in some position. It feels like muscle pain but sometimes nerves . i am worried that it could be a heart related problem. I am 26 years old female. I want to consult a doctor, should i be consulting physician or neurologist or cardiologist. Please advise
