Causes Of Left Arm Pain Without Chest Pain (and Treatments)
Several conditions or injuries can cause left arm pain, ranging from mild to severe. While it is often associated with a heart attack–where it may signal a serious cardiac event—left arm pain can also result from musculoskeletal issues, nerve-related problems, and other non-heart attack reasons.

Non-Heart-Attack Causes of Left Arm Pain Bursitis Bursitis is an inflammation of a small fluid-filled sac between bones, called a bursa. It occurs from joint overuse or injury and tends to happen in the knee or elbow. The symptoms of bursitis include swelling and pain. When it affects the left elbow, it can cause left arm pain. Injury Left arm pain can be caused by an injury such as a bone fracture, bruise, or tendonitis. A broken bone can cause significant pain, swelling, and bruising and may produce a noticeably out-of-place bone or joint. Fractures can occur from falls, accidents, or traumas. Tendonitis is an overuse injury that causes pain and soreness around a joint. It can cause left arm pain when the tendonitis occurs in the left wrist, shoulder, or elbow. Elbow tendinitis is also known as tennis elbow or golfer's elbow. Peripheral Neuropathy Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that affects how the nerves carry signals between the spinal cord and the body. When someone has this condition, their nerves do not work properly, which can cause symptoms such as: Pain Numbness Tingling Weakness There are several causes of peripheral neuropathy. Diabetes is one of its primary causes. When the nerves in the left arm are affected, arm pain can occur. Herniated Disk Disks separate the bones within the spine (vertebrae). They help provide movement for the vertebrae and protection for the spinal cord. When a disc slips out of place, it is called a herniated disc. This can result from an injury, lifting heavy items, or repetitive bending movements. When the herniated disk occurs in the neck, it can cause pain in the arm, neck, shoulder, and fingers. Heart Attack With Left Arm Pain but No Chest Pain Heart attacks do not always produce chest pain. When one doesn't, it is called a silent heart attack. Despite its name, it is just as serious a heart attack that does cause chest pain. The symptoms of a silent heart attack may include chest pain, but the pain may come and go. Or the chest may feel uncomfortable instead of painful. Sometimes, this is confused with indigestion. Other signs of a silent heart attack are pain in other areas of the body. These other areas include: Arm (left, right, or both) Neck Jaw Back Stomach Cold sweats, nausea, dizziness, and difficulty breathing are other symptoms of a silent heart attack. Call 911 immediately if you or someone you know are experiencing the above symptoms. How Pain Causes Anxiety and Panic Pain and anxiety often go hand in hand. This is due to how the brain is wired. The areas in the brain that produce pain also produce anxiety and depression. How to Get a Diagnosis Left arm pain can be a vague symptom that is difficult to diagnose. Pain that has an obvious cause, like an injury or accident, will be diagnosed based on the patient's verbal history, examination, and any necessary imaging. Imaging can include magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), an X-ray, or a computed tomography (CT) scan. When left arm pain does not have a known cause, comes on suddenly, or is severe, seek immediate medical attention. A healthcare provider will diagnose a heart attack based on an electrocardiogram (EKG) and blood tests. Additional testing, such as an X-ray, CT scan, or stress test, may assess the extent of heart damage. Treatment Treatment for left arm pain without chest pain will depend on the cause. If the pain is because of a heart attack, treatment will include one or more of the following: Treatment for bursitis and injuries will include rest, ice, and pain medication. Depending on the severity, additional treatment may be necessary. Herniated disc treatment includes rest and physical therapy. It may also require medications, injections, and lifestyle treatments. Peripheral neuropathy treatment will focus on removing or relieving the cause of neuropathy, medication, or even surgery. Prevention and Resuming Normal Activity Left arm pain should be evaluated and treated by a healthcare provider. They can guide treatment and determine when resuming normal activity is safe. Summary Left arm pain without chest pain can be a worrisome symptom. It can happen because of a simple injury or a more severe condition like a heart attack. Anytime left arm pain is experienced and the pain is severe, comes on suddenly, or is accompanied by other heart attack symptoms, seek medical attention immediately. 9 Sources Verywell Health uses only high-quality sources, including peer-reviewed studies, to support the facts within our articles.

An asthma attack is much more than just feeling winded after exercise and needing to catch your breath. Asthma is a chronic condition that affects 25 million people in the U.S. And involves the airways becoming irritated and inflamed. Asthma attacks happen when the symptoms worsen to the point where a person feels like they are unable to breathe.
What Does it Feel Like?"Asthma attacks can be very stressful on the body," says Mili Shum, MD, an allergist and immunologist at University of Utah Health. "During an asthma attack, bronchospasms can occur, where the airways get narrow and reduce the amount of airflow."
During an asthma attack, you may:
Some people have silent asthma, meaning they may not cough or wheeze during an attack, but still experience the other symptoms. Silent asthma attacks can become more severe because early signs might be missed.
What Triggers an Attack?Several different factors can lead to an asthma attack, and they vary from person to person. They include:
If you know you have asthma, you can keep it under control and prevent asthma attacks by avoiding your triggers, taking preventive medications, or treating underlying allergies with allergy shots or a daily allergy pill.
What Should I Do During an Attack?An asthma attack can be scary and uncomfortable, but try to remain calm. Be sure you always have your prescribed quick-relief medications—like an albuterol inhaler, for example—with you, and that you know how to use them.
"A mild asthma attack usually resolves easily with treatment," Shum says. "However, an asthma attack can become life-threatening if the symptoms are severe and are not relieved with a rescue inhaler."
If someone around you is having an asthma attack, help the person sit upright and encourage them to use their usual form of treatment. If you are trained on how to properly administer their medication, provide assistance if needed. Stay with them until the attack eases. If they do not have their quick-relief medication, or the attack worsens, call 911 or take them to an emergency room.
The following symptoms are signs of a severe asthma attack that require emergency medical attention immediately:
Asthma is a manageable condition. Be sure to always be armed with your medications and know the warning signs of an oncoming attack for prompt intervention.
Dupixent® (dupilumab) Phase 3 Trial Confirms Significant Improvements In Itch And Hives For Patients With Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU)
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Confirming the results of Study A, this second pivotal trial in biologic-naïve patients met primary and key secondary endpoints, showing treatment with Dupixent resulted in a nearly 50% reduction in itch and urticaria activity scores compared to placebo
More than 300,000 people in the U.S. Suffer from CSU that is inadequately controlled by antihistamines
Data will support regulatory resubmission in the U.S. By year-end; if approved, Dupixent would be the first targeted therapy for CSU in a decade
TARRYTOWN, N.Y. And PARIS, Sept. 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: REGN) and Sanofi today announced that a Dupixent® (dupilumab) confirmatory Phase 3 trial (LIBERTY-CUPID Study C) met the primary and key secondary endpoints for the investigational treatment of patients with uncontrolled, biologic-naïve chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) receiving background therapy with antihistamines. CSU is a chronic skin condition that causes sudden and debilitating hives and persistent itch, which can impact quality of life. This positive trial confirms results from Study A, the first Phase 3 trial of Dupixent in this setting. Earlier this year, Japan was the first country in the world to approve and launch Dupixent for adult and adolescent CSU patients based on the results from Study A.
"Patients with uncontrolled chronic spontaneous urticaria experience debilitating itch and hives that appear without warning and disrupt their lives," said George D. Yancopoulos, M.D., Ph.D., Board co-Chair, President and Chief Scientific Officer at Regeneron, and a principal inventor of Dupixent. "With a nearly 50% reduction in itch and urticaria activity scores compared to placebo, these positive Phase 3 results reaffirm the potential of Dupixent to bring relief and its well-established safety profile to those living with this chronic inflammatory skin disease."
Study C enrolled 151 children and adults who were randomized to receive Dupixent (n=74) or placebo (n=77) added to standard-of-care histamine-1 (H1) antihistamines. At 24 weeks, efficacy among patients receiving Dupixent compared to placebo was as follows:
Story continues
8.64-point reduction in itch severity from baseline with Dupixent versus a 6.10-point reduction with placebo (p=0.02).
15.86-point reduction in urticaria activity (itch and hive) severity from baseline with Dupixent versus an 11.21-point reduction with placebo (p=0.02).
Notably, 30% of Dupixent-treated patients reported no urticaria (complete response) compared to 18% of those on placebo (p=0.02).
The safety results were generally consistent with the known safety profile of Dupixent in its approved dermatological indications. Overall rates of treatment emergent adverse events (AEs) were 53% for Dupixent and 53% for placebo. AEs more commonly observed with Dupixent (≥5%) compared to placebo included injection site reactions (12% vs. 4%), accidental overdose (7% vs. 3%) and COVID-19 infection (8% vs. 5%).
Detailed results from this trial will be provided to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration by year-end 2024 in response to the additional data requested for inclusion in the supplemental biologics license application for Dupixent in CSU. These data are also planned for presentation at a forthcoming medical meeting.
"The positive pivotal data from this study reinforce the potential of Dupixent to offer a new treatment option for the many people suffering from chronic spontaneous urticaria who do not respond to standard-of-care antihistamines," said Dietmar Berger, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer, Global Head of Development at Sanofi. "With clinically meaningful reductions in itch and hives for patients receiving Dupixent, we look forward to sharing these data with the FDA to bring Dupixent to patients with CSU in the U.S. As soon as possible. With Dupixent now treating 1 million patients across seven approved indications, these new results underscore there are still many more patients that Dupixent can potentially benefit."
Outside of Japan, the safety and efficacy of Dupixent for CSU has not been fully evaluated by any regulatory authority.
About Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria (CSU)CSU is a chronic inflammatory skin disease driven in part by type 2 inflammation, which causes sudden and debilitating hives and persistent itch. CSU is typically treated with H1 antihistamines, medicines that target H1 receptors on cells to control symptoms of urticaria. However, the disease remains uncontrolled despite antihistamine treatment in many patients, some of whom are left with limited alternative treatment options. These individuals continue to experience symptoms that can be debilitating and significantly impact their quality of life.
About the Dupixent Phase 3 CSU Program (LIBERTY-CUPID)The LIBERTY-CUPID Phase 3 program evaluating Dupixent in CSU consists of Study A, Study B and Study C. Study C was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial that evaluated the efficacy and safety of Dupixent as an add-on to standard-of-care antihistamines compared to antihistamines alone in 151 patients aged six years and older with CSU who remained symptomatic despite antihistamine use and were not previously treated with omalizumab (i.E., biologic-naïve). The primary endpoint assessed the change from baseline in itch at 24 weeks (measured by the weekly itch severity score [ISS7], 0-21 scale). A key secondary endpoint was the change from baseline in itch and hives at 24 weeks (measured by the weekly urticaria activity score [UAS7], 0-42 scale).
Study A supported the approval of Dupixent in Japan for the treatment of CSU in people aged 12 years and older whose disease is not adequately controlled with existing therapy.
Results from Study A and Study B (which assessed Dupixent in patients aged 12 years and older who were uncontrolled on standard-of-care H1 antihistamines and refractory to omalizumab) were published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology.
About DupixentDupixent, which was invented using Regeneron's proprietary VelocImmune® technology, is a fully human monoclonal antibody that inhibits the signaling of the interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-13 (IL-13) pathways and is not an immunosuppressant. The Dupixent development program has shown significant clinical benefit and a decrease in type 2 inflammation in Phase 3 trials, establishing that IL-4 and IL-13 are key and central drivers of the type 2 inflammation that plays a major role in multiple related and often co-morbid diseases.
Dupixent has received regulatory approvals in more than 60 countries in one or more indications including certain patients with atopic dermatitis, asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis, eosinophilic esophagitis, prurigo nodularis, CSU, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in different age populations. More than 1,000,000 patients are being treated with Dupixent globally.
About Regeneron's VelocImmune Technology Regeneron's VelocImmune technology utilizes a proprietary genetically engineered mouse platform endowed with a genetically humanized immune system to produce optimized fully human antibodies. When Regeneron's co-Founder, President and Chief Scientific Officer George D. Yancopoulos was a graduate student with his mentor Frederick W. Alt in 1985, they were the first to envision making such a genetically humanized mouse, and Regeneron has spent decades inventing and developing VelocImmune and related VelociSuite® technologies. Dr. Yancopoulos and his team have used VelocImmune technology to create a substantial proportion of all original, FDA-approved or authorized fully human monoclonal antibodies. This includes REGEN-COV® (casirivimab and imdevimab), Dupixent, Libtayo® (cemiplimab-rwlc), Praluent® (alirocumab), Kevzara® (sarilumab), Evkeeza® (evinacumab-dgnb), Inmazeb® (atoltivimab, maftivimab and odesivimab-ebgn) and Veopoz™ (pozelimab-bbfg).
Dupilumab Development Program Dupilumab is being jointly developed by Regeneron and Sanofi under a global collaboration agreement. To date, dupilumab has been studied across more than 60 clinical trials involving more than 10,000 patients with various chronic diseases driven in part by type 2 inflammation.
In addition to the currently approved indications, Regeneron and Sanofi are studying dupilumab in a broad range of diseases driven by type 2 inflammation or other allergic processes in Phase 3 trials, including chronic pruritus of unknown origin and bullous pemphigoid. These potential uses of dupilumab are currently under clinical investigation, and the safety and efficacy in these conditions have not been fully evaluated by any regulatory authority.
U.S. INDICATIONS DUPIXENT is a prescription medicine used:
to treat adults and children 6 months of age and older with moderate-to-severe eczema (atopic dermatitis or AD) that is not well controlled with prescription therapies used on the skin (topical), or who cannot use topical therapies.

Especially tell your healthcare provider if you are taking oral, topical, or inhaled corticosteroid medicines; have asthma and use an asthma medicine; or have atopic dermatitis, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis, eosinophilic esophagitis, or prurigo nodularis and also have asthma. Do not change or stop your corticosteroid medicine or other asthma medicine without talking to your healthcare provider. This may cause other symptoms that were controlled by the corticosteroid medicine or other asthma medicine to come back.
DUPIXENT can cause serious side effects, including:
Allergic reactions. DUPIXENT can cause allergic reactions that can sometimes be severe. Stop using DUPIXENT and tell your healthcare provider or get emergency help right away if you get any of the following signs or symptoms: breathing problems or wheezing, swelling of the face, lips, mouth, tongue or throat, fainting, dizziness, feeling lightheaded, fast pulse, fever, hives, joint pain, general ill feeling, itching, skin rash, swollen lymph nodes, nausea or vomiting, or cramps in your stomach-area.
Eye problems. Tell your healthcare provider if you have any new or worsening eye problems, including eye pain or changes in vision, such as blurred vision. Your healthcare provider may send you to an ophthalmologist for an exam if needed.
Inflammation of your blood vessels. Rarely, this can happen in people with asthma who receive DUPIXENT. This may happen in people who also take a steroid medicine by mouth that is being stopped or the dose is being lowered. It is not known whether this is caused by DUPIXENT. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you have: rash, chest pain, worsening shortness of breath, a feeling of pins and needles or numbness of your arms or legs, or persistent fever.
Joint aches and pain. Some people who use DUPIXENT have had trouble walking or moving due to their joint symptoms, and in some cases needed to be hospitalized. Tell your healthcare provider about any new or worsening joint symptoms. Your healthcare provider may stop DUPIXENT if you develop joint symptoms.
The most common side effects include:
Eczema: injection site reactions, eye and eyelid inflammation, including redness, swelling, and itching, sometimes with blurred vision, dry eye, cold sores in your mouth or on your lips, and high count of a certain white blood cell (eosinophilia).
Asthma: injection site reactions, high count of a certain white blood cell (eosinophilia), pain in the throat (oropharyngeal pain), and parasitic (helminth) infections.
Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyposis: injection site reactions, eye and eyelid inflammation, including redness, swelling, and itching, sometimes with blurred vision, high count of a certain white blood cell (eosinophilia), gastritis, joint pain (arthralgia), trouble sleeping (insomnia), and toothache.
