Have Pain Inside My Skin Between Elbow And Wrist. Right Medication?
Hello,
For the past three days I've been experiencing shooting pains, like someone is pouring hot water on the inside of my skin between the left elbow and wrist. The sensation is intermittent, and I can go for may hours with no symptoms at all, then it just catches. I can barely move my arm for the duration, which lasts just a few minutes. This has occurred several times each day, although today the episodes seem to be less frequent.
They are still extremely intense.

Thanks for query on HCM.
Hot feeling with pain indicates some inflammation in the soft tissue and sprain of muscle.
It occurs after some weight lifting in unequal position,Continuous pressure during improper sleeping,sitting .
Start nsaid with muscle relaxant.
Apply nsaid gel locally.
B12,folic acid and supplements are advisable.
Get examined by family physician and start medication under guidance.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
Though the query is not clear, I will try to give the complete answer. The ulnar nerve runs along the inner side of the fore arm.
It appears that there is pressure on the ulnar nerve, intermittently probably during some movements.
Or there may be partial obstruction to the ulnar artery, with an obstruction intermittently.
You may need to have M.R.I, and color dopler for diagnosis, so i advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
