What could cause a tight burning pain in my upper right arm that extends down to my fingers?
First of all: I'm not a doctor, but was suffering from continuous pains in shoulder, fixed it all myself by reading literature and consulting with real doctors. Be warned.
Possible causes that I think of are: a trauma, a strained muscle, a posture deficiency, and a myofascial trigger point. Or all four together. You probably should visit an orthopaedist first, to check out if you have any posture deficiency, no matter whether it is caused by trauma or not. If you do, then you'll probably be prescribed some corrective treatment, a series of exercises and stretches. It is usually because of posture deficiencies (a short leg, scoliosis, kyphosis etc) one group of muscles is overloaded, and another is overstrained. The latter causes continuous pain. If that is your case, then first identifying, and then stretching the group that is overloaded, and also exercising the weak, overstrained muscles should help immediately within 1-3 days. However, don't do that without consulting a doctor first.

"The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook" by C.Davies Good answer by the first person, I would only add that referred pain can be the result of neurological or vascular injury as well, and should be evaluated by a doctor before undertaking any self-help regimen, as these can result in permanent injury. Some of the things done to relieve muscle strain can aggravate these conditions, so you should have a more definitive diagnosis before undertaking them.

Something is burning. New answer The above answer is obvious as to what coud be burning it could be a number of things. First check the fluids. If any of them are low it could cause a burning smell, top them up to the proper levels. If the burning smell continues then it could be some thing else. Or it could be some fluids spilt on the engine while it was running. It could also be a malfunctioning cercuit, burnt wire, some thing in the engine could be dying out. When in doubt have it checked out asap or the burning smell could burn through your wallet.
