Re: pain in upper arm

I've had similar pain for the last 2 years, it was only recently I saw a physiotherapist that I discovered it was caused by excessive use of breaststroke, doing the same type of repetitive exercise(in swimming). The longer you leave it (as I had), the worse it could get-I am unable to move my arm normally, so undergoing physio at the moment. Suggest you see your GP and/or physiotherapist.
