1285110 tn?1420147378 There are tons of videos on you tube for arm exercises. This might help to be able to see them being done instead of just reading about them. I know it's easier for me anyway. I think 20 min. a week on your arms would be enough. I do 20 on arms, 20 on legs, and 20 on core per week. The weight your using is also good, your at 3. I use 3 and 5. If you go up I wouldn't go up more than that.
Avatar m tn re reaching for the stars. Raise right arm and left leg simultaneously keeping straight at the elbow and knees. You'll look a little like you're swimming. Alternate with left arm / right leg for a count of ten each. 13. Stand up and pull your elbows behind your back as if you're trying to touch elbows behind your back. Repeat ten times. 14. Stand in the corner (even thought you haven't been bad...
Avatar f tn It radiates all the way down my left arm, but is most prominate in my shoulder and upper arm. When my husband will massage my arm it will relieve the pain for a little while. I just have NO idea what it could be. if I am sitting or standing there is no pain at all. And the doctors are stumped. Any ideas??
Avatar n tn t have any of the predisposing factors you listed but last year when I had a lot of anxiety my heart was beating hard and fast all the time for weeks and that led to heart pain including from chest exercises and later from jogging.
Avatar f tn You can try some chest muscle exercises which can help a little. And bras these days make it so you hardly know when you are in clothes what the real size of a woman's breasts are. And there are as many men who could care less about breast size as there are who love large busts. Try not to worry too much.
325698 tn?1216328754 Talk to your surgeon about getting to a physical therapist for a sleeve and gauntlet. He has to send in a prescription for one for the insurance. You'll want one for flying, exercising, etc. You can also order them online without a prescription, once you know your size (I'd have someone do it professionally the first time, and if you want to just pay out of pocket for a second, you can use that info to get another one...I use BandagesPlus.com).
Avatar n tn ve lost a considerable amount of weight by doing 1 hour walks daily, and night exercises which consist of little 5 lb arm weights and a few aerobic exercises. Anyhoo,within past 2 weeks, I have recently started to up my exercise to 1 1/2 hour of walking early, and 30 min of walk/jogging at night w night exercises as well. The other day I jogged a little further than normal and had this SEVERE sharp pain in my chest.
Avatar n tn Then it started being consistent. The pain traveled up to the top of my shoulder and my neck and sometimes down my arm. A little background: I can pop my shoulder in and out of place by myself with no pain. I could do that since I was little. During summer, (June and July) I had x-rays and an MRI done of my neck. The doctors thought I could have something on my spine by my neck causing the pain to travel down.
Avatar f tn I went to the ER and they told me it could be my spine/back causing the left hand and arm/chest problems, I also sit a lot through the day and had back pain prior to the chest and hand pain. Also, my back hurts mostly next to my left scapula. I still haven't done anything about it but it seems right. So this just might be your problem too, ask your doctor about it. btw. I also worry about angina/heart attack and understand your concerns.
Avatar m tn A push-up not only helps you to get a stronger upper body, but also a stronger midsection. It incorporates the stabilization muscles of your core, combining an upper-body pushing movement with a plank. It is, in fact, one of the best and most basic exercises for your midsection. Push-ups are a higher value plank.
Avatar m tn For example, a workout to tone the body might target leg muscles one day, chest and back muscles on a separate day and arm and shoulder muscles on a third day. Perform two or three exercises for each muscle group. Start with bodyweight exercises, such as situps, pushups and pullups. Then progress to basic weightlifting exercises, such as bench presses, lat pulldowns and squats.

Avatar f tn Take the weight of the bar, and slowly lower it to about 3 inches above the chest. Feel the tension in your chest muscles, and then quickly power the bar back up to full extension. Barbell squat is one of the best muscle-gaining exercises. Take the weight of the bar on the back of your shoulders. Squat in a slow and controlled motion. Upon reaching the point where the buttocks are parallel with the knees, come back up to start position.
Avatar n tn As my head rotated toward my chest a twinge of pain radiated down the arm and hand. It did not, yet, provide relief by I shall cautiously repeat this exercise. I recently began looking at my computer from about a 45 degree angle to the right (the pinky tingling and forearm weakness are in the right arm) started after about a month of this new behavior, so I'm hoping that eliminating it will avail.
Avatar n tn I have a pinched nerve in the spine, with pain traveling down my left arm and into my chest. The left chest muscles are noticeably smaller than my right side.
Avatar n tn For example, today when I was using the weed eater my arm felt extra and afterwards when I went in for a drink my hand and arm shook lifting the glass. This did go away though after a few minutes. For some reason I have become very concerned about ALS. I did a symptom check and it came up as one the diseases. I am not too familiar with the disease and wanted to know if any of these symptoms should have me concerned. I should also note that I am a very anxious person.
Avatar n tn My primary reason was because my right eye is slightly misaligned. I was prescribed glasses with a prism to diminish the ghosting and double vision but the eyes still appear skewed. I guess the glasses just fix the vision and not the appearance.
Avatar m tn I am not expert on the breathing, but I do know there are some recommended breathing exercises to stop arrhythmia attacks, I don't remember which or the specifics of the breathing exercises...to the point, yes I think breathing and pressure on the chest can be a stimulation for an existing condition. I don't believe there is any relationship between swimming or other controlled breathing work-outs that will cause arrhythmia.
Avatar n tn I have chest pain that radiates into the left arm pit,thru to the back shoulder blade and sharply up to the left lower jaw in area of lower second bicuspid and first molar.It can also radiate into my left cheekbone. It can be mild,or severe,and not all signs together or in sequence and usually accompanies chest tightness/crushing and shortness of breath. Women can be very different from men in their signs, having only tiredness of a symptom of an impending cardiac event.Joan.
Avatar f tn I have the same problems. I have chest pains and under my left arm, and it scares me so bad. I think it is a part of anxiety, i hope anyway. But I never had experienced this before anxiety.
Avatar f tn hiya i have been getting paid in my chest and down my arm all day i was wondering why am i getting these pains i had a look on the internet and it said it could be angina?
Avatar n tn Whenever my heart rate rises from exercise or even walking, I have numbness, tingling down my right arm and sometimes right chest pains. I have had this for 10 years, but it's been getting really bad the last 2-3 years. I'm a 28 yo male. I have had weight changes in the last 3 years of weight 385 to 300. I thought it was a shoulder or nerve problem, but I've seen 7 doctors with no results.
Avatar n tn When my lymphedema was at its worst, I had to wrap my arm and hand in compression wrap which made the whole arm look like it was in a cast. I did that for 2 weeks with MLD to get my arm back to a manageable state where I wore only my sleeve and gaunlet. Now I wear them whenever my arm feels full and do the massive wrap if I've totally let it go and it has gotten out of hand again. I You need to talk with your doc and a PT person who specializes in this to get approval from them....
Avatar f tn The main symptoms are pain radiating in the arm, neck, chest and shoulders. Others are numbness, tingling in fingers and hands with muscle weakness. Did you get an MRI spine or brain? you would need an MRI spine and treatment would require appropriate treatment including NSIADS, physical therapy including cervical traction and mobilization, exercises etc. you would require surgical decompression if symptoms are distressing and motor weakness is present. Wishing you all the best.
