I'm experiencing pain in my wrist and fingers on the left side of my arm, and it's been going on for two weeks. I had an ECG and an echo done, and both results came out normal, but the pain gets worse when I move my arm. I saw an orthopedic doctor, had a neck X-ray, and they said it might be related to neck issues. I'm really concerned and wonder if this arm pain could possibly be linked to any heart problems?

Based on the normal results of your ECG and echo tests, it is unlikely that your arm pain is related to heart issues. The orthopedic doctor's assessment that the pain is due to neck problems is more likely the cause of your wrist and finger pain in the left side of your arm. To help alleviate the pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Additionally, your doctor may prescribe muscle relaxants or physical therapy to help with the neck issue.

I'm 17 and for the last 6 months, I've been dealing with this awful spinning and imbalance sensation. It's messing up my life, and I feel like nothing is helping. I've tried so many medicines, and my doctor prescribed Diligan 25, but I'm really anxious about seeing any improvement. What can I do to make this stop?

I'm really worried because two days ago, my sister suddenly passed out and had a really bad headache for about 30 minutes. She's not diabetic or dealing with blood pressure issues, so it was totally unexpected, and now I'm just trying to figure out what could have caused it. Any ideas on what might be going on?
