Hi!

Yes, anxiety can sometimes cause left arm pain or discomfort, especially if the person is experiencing a panic attack or severe anxiety. During a panic attack, a person may experience physical symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, and left arm pain, which can mimic the symptoms of a heart attack. This is known as somatic symptom disorder, where anxiety or stress can manifest in physical symptoms.
It is important to note, however, that left arm pain can also be a symptom of other medical conditions, such as a heart attack or angina. If left arm pain is accompanied by other symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, or sweating, it is important to seek medical attention immediately, as these may be signs of a more serious medical condition.
If left arm pain is recurring and not accompanied by other symptoms, it may be related to anxiety. In this case, seeking treatment for anxiety, such as therapy or medication, can help manage symptoms and prevent future episodes of left arm pain.
Hope it is resolved by now. What can you tell us about your condition at the moment?
