So many people have shared this exact same problem (including me!), and no one has been able to pin-point what part of the arm/shoulder was injured from the injection. My nurse said that it was most likely the shot given too high in the arm...but this is an educated guess only.
If you do go to the ortho, please let us know what the results are...it will help so many people! If it truly is as simple as individuals knowing to tell the nurse "3 fingers below the shoulder" and drawing a bull's eye/target on ourselves, I believe many of us would gladly do it.
I hope your pain gets better soon. I can tell you my pain did not radiate toward my neck, so this is definitely something you would want to have checked out.

Congrats on your 3 month old baby, too.
