I fully realise that but it helps to know if it's a widespread issue after a needle has been used in an arm.
As it happens over the last day or so It seems to be developing locally and I can feel tenderness in the area developing.
Deliberately.....
Sounds like similar pain.I have, on occasion I think had something similar in my Covid jab arm. Comes from nowhere, is fleeting but hurts like hell. Tbh too much has gone on since to recall. The heart palpitations I had after were much more concerning.
The worse one I get is something on/in my head. Like a thousand tiny needles in a patch that varies as to where. It comes on like an axe in the head (I'm guessing) then goes instantly. Really makes me wince. My scalp feels tender to the touch thereafter but not agony. I did think something shingles like.
Ironically that's so similar to my experience except for lying on it in bed.
It's quite funny really as it proves me asking the question was not so stupid after all.
I have to admit being momentarily ofended by the replies taking the urine about asking medical advice on a mig welding forum. Lol until I really the nature of text and context etc.
Plus I am one of the first to drift of topic and engage in bants. Lol

No such thing as a stupid question. Some answers on the other hand may be judged differently!Ironically that's so similar to my experience except for lying on it in bed.

Indeed. I once "diagnosed" a work mate's wife's ovarian cancer. I'd previously read an article in The Times that I remembered. The GP was treating her for bloating / flatulence. I kid you not. Ended up she collapsed and he took her to a walk in clinic saying "we think it's this, not moving until it's properly investigated". She made it.
Some years ago I had a large boil on my fundament which was so agonizing as to require a visit to see Dr Anil who refered me to a Proctologist named Mr Brown. Even i who at the time was mincing along like an old queen in severe pain had to laugh at the irony.
Incidentally Mr Browns hobby was traction engines.
After that operation i will never be embarrased at any medical procedure ever again.

Did you ask him to take the pain away but keep the swelling?
Edit: Hang on, is the fundament front or back?

It's really hard to break a hypodermic needle, I'd be very, very surprised if that's the issue.
You can bend them. Never seen one break.

I was guessing that.
You don't hear of them breaking. I have wondered about scar tissue .
Certainly getting pain more often.
I have noticed its often in the car changing gear as it did it again tonight.
Certainly does not feel like it's linked to cardiology. But I will go and see what if anything they suggest.

Have you mentioned this to your GP ?
Without your age, PMH, and all that, we're all just speculating.
I'm no doctor, and don't think anyone else on here is a doctor of medicine.

We have medical doctors on here ?I think you're wrong in that.
I know we have people with doctorates.

I've asked for medical help on here before.
Someone gave me the phone number of their district nurse wife, who was great.
You know who you are, and thanks.

theres a whole variety of professions on here and not all tell you what they do 
some the old bill tax man doctors customs fireman who knows i might be an electrician
some the old bill tax man doctors customs fireman who knows i might be an electrician I had this, worsening day by day, making it hard to sleep on my side. Then I was reaching up one night, and that triggered an excruciatingly painfull bout of shoulder / arm pain. I thought it was a dvt (had one in my leg before that and the symptoms were similar). Anyway, eventually an xray showed it was a damaged tendon getting trapped within a calcificated joint - aka frozen shoulder. One of the most painful things ever - I didn't sleep in my bed for over a month. Eventually it got better, but I took some serious pain relief for a while.Not really. I just wondered if it was widespread. First reply indicated I was not paranoid.
I did actually phone the Doctors at 8.30 but no appointments left for the day.
I am also on OZEMPIC and lost 2 1/2 stone.
I speak to the Nurse every who doses my wife's warfarin ( well I dose it and see if she agrees) I have been doing it for 21 years now so instinct is a remarkable thing.
But to clarify I wondered if it was widespread and an age thing and as my wife was 38 and being treated for toothache, which turned out to actually be artery pain which was a blocking left carotid artery that eventually turned into the stroke. I am more than aware the potential of left side pains.
This is not a pain I have heard described before though.
I theory I have is the jab damaged/affected a bone as I am more convinced it is actually slightly tender above where the pain generates from.
So I am not doing diagnosis by welding forum in isolation.
As a further example I have a totally different type of pain that results from lifting my right hand when in a specific orientation (usually stretching and twisting) that was diagnosed as injured rotator cuff.
So thanks for all the advice I do intend to get an appointment next week.
Edit to add, it hasn't totally gone away, still can't reach up without getting a reminder..
