Pain in your “upper extremities” – your shoulder, arm and elbow – is very common, which is not surprising, given how much you rely on them for so many activities on a daily basis. The pain may be minor or so severe that your movements become restricted. The critical questions are “What’s the causing the pain?” and “What’s the best way to relieve it?”
