I would get her to a chiropractor. She has probably had subluxations for some time and these can cause neurogenic inflammation. What has probably happened is that over that last 10 years her cervical spine has been degenerating and thus more problems are now arising. The fact that she has had neck pain and the nerves that innervate her arms come from her neck is a good indication that she does have subluxation. Her problem with her teeth could be from the same thing. She should see a good chiropractor for her problems right away. Here is a site that shows some problem that chiropractors have had success with.

her teeth are black? does she see a dentist? It sounds like some circulation issues, has she been tested for diabetes? Diabetes causes neuropathy which is painful and also swelling. It could be something like lymphedema as well, or a subluxation in the neck. She needs to see a specialty doctor, maybe a rheumatologist, neurologist, or orthopedic doctor.

Subluxation. Its the two bones in the neck that the spinal tube flows in between and when it gets pinched it causes all sorts of problems such as you have described. Check out a specific chiropractic. If there are none in your state because they are very rare then I know of two in Michigan. If you need the info and are interested then let me know!

i would suggest your mom see a neurologist..or rheumotologist for the pain..they might want to do an MRI on her or and EMG to check her nerve conduction..as far as her teeth./..could be a vitimine deficiency...she should see a dentist..
