Pain in the Left Arm
Description:
Pain in the left arm can be caused by various factors, including muscle strain, nerve compression, or more serious conditions like heart problems. The left arm is often associated with discomfort during heart attacks, but other musculoskeletal or nerve-related issues can also lead to pain in this area.
Common Causes:
- Muscle strain or overuse.
- Pinched nerve or cervical radiculopathy.
- Heart-related conditions, including angina or myocardial infarction (heart attack).
- Arthritis or joint inflammation.
- Injury to the shoulder or elbow.
If the pain is sudden or accompanied by symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or dizziness, immediate medical attention is required to rule out a heart attack or other serious conditions.
