Answers:
ok not related to this question but you closed your other question too quick.I work in neurology.about your arm here's what I tried to post before you closed your question:
OK, it is NOT sciatica or the "sciatica nerve".lol. The sciatic nerve extends of the lumbar plexus near your hips and extends into the leg.
The pain in your arm is likely due to an impingement on a nerve or a nerve root. This could be occuring somewhere in the arm or in the cervical spine. It would be easier to guess which nerve it is if I new where the pain was.
In any case, it is not likely a heart condition at your age unless you have an incredible prevalance in your family or are obesely overweight.
You should definately see your primary care physician and probably will need the consultation of at least a neurologist. At the least they should be doing a Nerve Conduction Study and Electro Myography Study (NCV & EMG) to help determine where the impingement it. If it is in your arm somewhere, it may be related to something that you are doing repeatedly that is causing the problem. If it is at your cervical spine (neck), it could be a herniated disk, bone spur, fracture, or a number of other things going on in the spine that is putting pressure on some of the nerve roots as they leave the spinal cord. I would not remotely recommend a chiropractor for unilateral sharp pain in the arm and neck. If you do have something like a bone spur or fracture, manipulation of your spine could cause bad and permanent damage to your spinal cord. Not to say that chiropractic care doesn't have some utility, it just would be dangerous here.
The longer you let these things go on, the worse they can get for you also, so I would certainly make an appointment soon. Don't panic, but dont' dilly dally either :)
