Hello, Sir.
I can understand your concern.
This could possibly be an infection of the soft tissue of the arm.
A short course of antibiotics will help to reduce the swelling and pain.
I generally prescribe Oral pills of Tab Cephalexin 500 mg one pill twice a day for 7 days on patients with similar symptoms.
