Question

Answer
Hi Scott,

The symptoms you are describing can be caused by a nerve impingement, disc herniation or something called thoracic outlet syndrome. Because arteries and nerves located around the area of your neck go down into your arms, when you have a condition that affects the arteries and nerves around your neck, you may also suffer from symptoms in your arms. Your symptoms can also be caused by various other conditions which can be diagnosed by a chiropractic doctor. I would recommend that you see your family doctor or chiropractor to determine the cause of your pain and recommend the appropriate therapy.

I hope this helps!
