Neck, shoulder and right arm pain
Hi,
I'm having frequent pain in my neck (back side) that slowly moves to the shoulder and right arm. It's been 3 years it's happening.
Usually it starts from neck, move to shoulder and then I start to feel like my right arm have been chopped off. Usually it occurs once in 2-3 months and sometimes very frequently. When it gets severe, I take painkiller (sumo) and get the massage done, it gets better in 7-8 days and the cycle repeats after a month or two.
Please suggest what should I do and why it's happening at the exact same place. It's really hard to bear this pain, I can't even sit or lay down.
