Q: Feels like I havepinched nerve on my left back side causing some pain under my arm all the way to my fingers. Then I got an enormous sensation of veins burning. What could it be?
Hi Esmi,
I encourage you to see your physician about this issue and ask about getting an MRI if the diagnosis is not obvious to the physician. While it does not sound like a cardiac related issue, it could still be something more serious with a nerve, joint or bone and should be treated if possible. And, since cardiac symptoms can be different for different people, it would be good to rule out any possible heart issues.
Best of luck,
Monica M. Skidmore, MS, RD
