Why does my shoulder and arm hurt?
About a week and a half ago, while sleeping I did something to my shoulder. The pain goes all the way from my neck to my left arm to my hand. When it first happened I could not keep my neck straight without sharp pain. The pain seems to be centered at the top of my arm/shoulder and also top of the back. My arm feels like a their is a painful rubber band going from my shoulder down through to my hand. I have been taking, Aleve, but it has not done much. At night, I have trouble sleeping. I went to get a massage and it made it worse. The pain seems too be coming from underneath the muscles. When I move or try to stretch it out, it hurts for hours. The only time it feels better is when I immobilize it. I can't sleep on my side without pain. Anyone have any ideas what happened, treatment, and how long this will last?

It is Facet syndrome. Whenever facet nerve is irritated or injured, it can cause pain in any of these places: neck related area, low & mid back, thighs, and buttocks. Facet syndrome is a muscle spasm. You can ease the pains by stretching your muscle.
I had the facet syndrome & used this facet relief app to remove pain through stretches.

Sounds like you have been sitting in a slumped position, you may have slept wrong and got stiff. Playing video games, holding a pencil or reading a book puts strain on the wrists, so try to change positions when doing that. Make sure your posture is good, another thing is a chiropactor may have longer lasting results than a massage. I wear a wrist brace when I sleep if I am having trouble.
