No. This condition is caused by injury to the nerves supplying strength and sensation to the arm. Typical symptoms include asymmetric infantile reflexes and decreased spontaneous movement of the affected arm. If the child appears to be in pain, other conditions such as fractures of the clavicle (collarbone), humerus (upper arm bone), and shoulder should be ruled out with an X ray. Bone and/or joint infections should also be ruled out by blood tests, if pain is present.
Is my baby experiencing any discomfort for arm paralysis?
