How To Treat Excruciating Pain In Left Which Is Swollen From Bicep To Wrist Including Elbow?
I recently started going to the gym again and think I overdid it. I woke up with excruciating pain in left arm and was unable to straighten it since then it has become swollen from my bicep to wrist including elbow. I think I might of pulled a muscle or torn a ligament. Im debating going to a clinic or simply icing it until the swelling goes down .

Hi
I think it is mascular strain due to over use.
You can have arm sling and apply ice over it take mild analgrsic along with serrisiopeptidase which will decrease your swelling. Along with this you can apply crepe bandage too which will lower your swelling.
Get well soon.
Thank you.
