Abstract
Musculoskeletal disease is common in Primary Care, and is not always of trivial origin. According to the symptoms and comorbidities of the patient, these diseases must lead us to think if they be guiding symptoms of a more severe pathology.To highlight this, the case is presented of a young woman with cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension, smoking, obesity, and sleep apnoea-hypopnoea syndrome) with pain in left trapezius and motor and sensory clinical changes in left upper extremity. These comorbidities have in common their relationship with cerebrovascular disease; thus, given the concomitant clinical musculoskeletal symptoms, this cause should be suspected, as in this case.
