For now wrap her arm with towel soaked in very warm water to help relief the pain first. Hopefully can sleep thru it. :hugs: Mebbe you want to try acupuncture at TCM and if that still doesn't help ease pain better to see doc. Any swelling? Fell down? Carry heavy things? Not all tui na practitioners can do job well, some only make things worse from my experience.

Take pain killer such as aspirin, ponstan etc (to take after food) to relief pain n to be able to sleep, bring her to doctor to check.

Go Polyclinic, they will refer to the right place @ know if it is urgent. Tui na will worsen. That happen to my mum's back.

Did the pain just come suddenly? or is there a reason behind ? (such as after she has carried heavy stuff?)

Most part of the nerves along our arms are related to the spinal chord around the neck area. Did she hurt her neck that cause the pain?

I hope you bring her to reputable Chinese doctor. My experience with "western" doctor has been far from satisfactory over the years...unless you want some instant pain relief such as pain-killer which is most likely given in such case.
