question: in the past year or so, and just recently I have been getting extreme pain down my back and arms when I sneeze or cough. it feels like It travels down my nerves or veins but the pain doesn t stop. it will linger on for about 15 to 20 minutes after. most of the pain will stay at my elbows and upper back. ive have looked into this on the web and am wondering if you could give me some insight into this before I make myself an appointment with my family DR.
