Hello, Anon. Thank you for posting.

 Arm pain can result from injuries, inflammation or illnesses that develop in the muscles, tendons, ligaments, bones, or nerves of the arm. Pain felt in the arm can also originate from a problem in another area of the body, such as the upper spine, the neck or the heart. Tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and bursitis are all common arm pain causes and conditions, along with reflex sympathetic dystrophy and chronic regional pain syndrome.  If this has been going on for two months, it's time to see your doctor.
