I've been having this pain between my shoulder and elbow on my right arm when I wake up in the morning. It's been happening for the past month or two. I usually sleep on my left side, and I've had some fractured vertebrae diagnosed in my mid-upper back along with osteoporosis. Most of the time, the pain lessens after an hour or two, but today it was really bad. Could this be related to my previous back issues or osteoporosis? What should I do about this?

use zerodal mr and If the pain becomes severe or persists for longer periods, or if you begin to notice symptoms such as numbness, tingling, weakness, or difficulty moving your arm, its important to seek medical attention immediately, as these could be signs of more serious nerve involvement.

I've been dealing with gout and high uric acid for about six months now. I've been taking LOGOUTSR 250mg three times a day after meals. There's been a shortage of this medication, so I'm a bit concerned and wondering if you could suggest an alternative for me. Any advice on what I can do would really help.

I'm really worried about my mom. She just turned 55, and we got her general blood examination results back yesterday. Her ESR value is at 42, which seems to be almost twice the normal range. I'm not exactly sure what this indicates. Could you help me understand what this means and what steps we should take next?
