What is the cause of arm pain? Could it be related to a cervical disc herniation?

I have a herniated disc in my neck as well as my lower back.

Just like with my back... the steroid injections aren't working at all... and the medication isn't effective either... I'm just hoping it doesn't get worse and trying to manage it on my own.

The most common symptom of a herniated cervical disc is numbness in the arm.

Well.. unlike other cervical disc patients..

I suffered for over ten years with severe headaches and dizziness that felt like I was endlessly falling, to the point that even doctors didn't suspect anything, and I kept going in circles. It was only very late that I finally received a diagnosis.

 

The thing is... it wasn't that my arm was numb.

But as time has definitely passed... now it appears.

But... since the day before yesterday...

My arm... no, my entire arm hurtsㅠ

At first... I thought it was just because I used my phone a lot...

You used to do that even when you weren't using it...

Last night or early this morning... I kept feeling pain in my arm.

I couldn't sleep, kept knocking and tossing around.

 

Since Rangoon's commute time is naturally very short... I just gave up on sleeping and dozed off... but today... I've had pain all day long;;;

 

 

I was exhausted all morning while applying a hot pack to my arm...

A day like this is a disaster! I almost got carried away, so I had to stop..

Earlier, when I went out to exercise to boost my energy...

I applied a generous amount of ManSoraDam on my arm before heading out;;;

I didn't put it on in the early morning because I was worried about smelling it to Rangoon.

 

Hmm.. I wonder why..

This isn't a numbness... it's a throbbing pain.

No, it seems to be accompanied by a slight tingling sensation as well.

Is this... the same as the numbness symptoms caused by a herniated cervical disc?

 

Ah.. I don't want to go to the hospital, but should I go tomorrow;;;;

I don't even want to take medicine... but I guess I should at least try taking some painkillers.

 

I hope I will be feeling better tomorrow.
