My left arm above the elbow has been sore for a month or so. Last night I had a sharp pain in the general area, on the side of my left breath. I am 70 years old. I am taking a low dose of high blood pressure and a low pill of statins. Is This causing the problem?
Hi, Muscular pain is well known side effect of stations. And among BP medication diuretics are cause of pains. So change to other statin and change to other BP medicine if you are on diuretic. Check you Total CK and MM fraction. Apart from this you may have Ischemic arm pain so get your cardiac check up done to rule out Ischemic cause including treadmill stress test if possible. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
