painful arms

Posted , 2 users are following.

both my arms have been very painful over the last 6 months. Pain is extreme when sleeping on my side, or reaching behind in my car to get something .Trying to scratch my back or reaching up to get something out a high cupboard is also very painfull.I had an operation on my left shoulder five years ago , a ' sub clavicular arthriscopy '.. the clavicle was ground away as he dr said it was calcified and was catching the tendon .X rays taken recently didnt show any calcification though .Maybe the tendon is swollen due to calcium and is catching on the clavicle.PLEASE HELP!!!
