I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Angina occurs when the heart is not getting enough oxygen. Angina can cause left arm pain that is often accompanied by shoulder, neck, back, or jaw discomfort along with a feeling of indigestion. Angina is often a symptom of coronary artery disease and should be taken seriously. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
