• What does pain in the right arm mean?

Recently, my mother has been complaining of a sporadic shooting pain in her right arm. Other than that, she has been feeling completely fine. What could this pain mean?

Right arm pain can be related to multiple reasons. It may be related to joints or muscle pain (e.g., secondary to arthritis) or nerve compression. If pain is persistent, it is better to be evaluated by a medical provider.
