Neck, Right Arm pain
3 weeks ago, I experienced neck pain, which improved with medication. Now, I’m pain-free during most activities, including sitting or working. However, when I lie down, I start feeling pain in my neck, my right arm, specifically in the triceps and extending to the elbow. Could you kindly suggest what steps I should take?

The pain which you suffered 3 weeks was in neck and now you have pain radiating to arm.
It can be caused by a slipped disc pressing onto one of your nerves.
It is advisable to get it checked clinically by an orthopedic doctor nearby your home.
