[|AI|]  Hi, thank you for providing the brief history of you As per your history it looks like the cervical disc degenerative disease. A nerve impingement is possible on the nerve root leading to pain radiating to the shoulder blades, shoulder joint, arm, forearm and hand. This is a classical symptom of nerve root impingement in the cervical spine. I will Advise you to undergo a thorough clinical examination and an MRI of the cervical spine to understand the level of the nerve root compression. Also, using a cervical collar for support will help provide the traction leading to relief in pain. Treatment :Physical therapy has been worth in my clinical practice and most patients responds well. Physical therapy includes therapeutic ultrasound therapy, TENS therapy and exercises. Regards Jay In Chat Doctor.
