After the accident I was really sore and stayed that way for the first two days. But now I only hurt in my left shoulder. It's very specific too. I get a sharp pain in my back toward the scapula (possibly muscular or bone) and I also have nerve pain down the left side of my neck over the shoulder and down the arm. Sometimes I get a burning sensation in the neck too.

I have a call into my neuro to see what he thinks but he's so hard to get ahold of (he's one of 3 neuro's in the area).

Do you think this just sounds like normal pain from being in the accident or does it sound like some extra damage?

If it is new pain on top of what you normally experience then I would say it is caused by the accident. That doesn't mean its permanent. You could have just rattled things around in there.

I would keep an eye on it. If it gets worse try to contact your doc. Do you have an email address for him?
I have found that that is a much better and faster way to get a question answered by a doc(as long as you keep your message concise)
