Completely random, but I thought this was interesting. St. Amalburga is the saint to protect against arm pain. I like that the saints have specialties. I hadn't heard of the arm pain saint before. Been looking for a saint whose patronage incudes difficult decisions for a friend and came across her under "arm pain." As a good OBPI kid, found it neat.

Patron Saint Against Arm Pain
Re: Patron Saint Against Arm Pain
Maybe try Saint Amelia? That's the Anglicized version of Amalburga. (Amelie is the French.)

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: I am ROBPI, global injury, Horner's Syndrome. No surgery but PT started at 2 weeks old under the direction of New York Hospital. I wore a brace 24/7 for the first 11 months of my life. I've never let my injury be used as an excuse not to do something. I've approach all things, in life, as a challenge. I approach anything new wondering if I can do it. I tried so many things I might never have tried, if I were not obpi. Being OBPI has made me strong, creative, more determined and persistent. I believe that being obpi has given me a very strong sense of humor and compassion for others.

St. Raphael is the patron saint of Vocation, Marriage Partners and travelers. He is also the patron saint of the elderly sick and often referred to as the "Healing Medicine of God"...
I guess you can tell he is my patron Saint.
He is also referred to as on of the 7 Archangel's.
That might be a good one for your friend.

Re: Patron Saint Against Arm Pain
Anyone who is knowledgable, isn't there a Saint Nino' (spelling?), one who travels at night healing sick and injured children?
