Yes but I also have severe arthritis in my neck which affects my shoulders, arms, and back as well & some days are better than others.
Burning pain in the mid portion of the arm can be related to muscle inflammation, tendon involvement, or nerve irritation, especially in people with RA. Sometimes shoulder or neck issues can also refer pain to that area. If the pain is persistent, worsening, or accompanied by weakness or numbness, it should be evaluated by a rheumatologist or physician to determine the exact cause.
The Tizanidine tones down the intensity of the pain, but does not eliminate it.
My shoulder burns down to my elbow especially if I’m raising up folding clothes. I went to the orthopedic clinic. He put steroid shots in my shoulder and inner aspect of my elbow. It felt better after 2 days. I used the ice packs and TENS unit. It aches at times but no more burning
