Dear Patient,
Thank you for reaching out. Persistent arm pain lasting for 20 days should be carefully assessed to identify the underlying cause. Based on my expertise, here’s what I recommend:
Step 1: Immediate Actions
1. Rest: Minimize movements that strain your right arm.
2. Ice Therapy: Apply a cold pack to the affected area for 15–20 minutes, 2–3 times a day, especially if the pain feels sharp or inflammatory.
3. Gentle Stretches: Start with basic shoulder and arm stretches to relieve tension.
Step 2: Likely Causes to Consider
Muscle or Tendon Strain: Repetitive activities or overuse may lead to inflammation.
Cervical Issues: Nerve impingement from the neck could radiate pain to your arm.
Tendinitis: A common issue if the pain is localized near joints like the shoulder or elbow.
Step 3: Advanced Care
If there’s no improvement within a week or the pain worsens, I strongly recommend:
1. Physiotherapy Assessment: Visit one of our PAL Physiotherapy Clinics in Sector 41 or Sector 56, Gurgaon.
2. Specialized Treatments:
Dry Needling: Effective for muscle pain and tension relief.
Manual Therapy: To address restricted movements and joint issues.
Electrotherapy: Modalities like TENS or ultrasound for pain relief.
3. Postural Analysis: Poor posture might contribute to nerve or muscle strain, especially if you work at a desk or drive frequently.
