Sore Muscles, Arms Shaking After Carrying Baby. Reason?

Hey yesterday was out with my friend and her baby and she's got a 4 month and I was holding her for a bit and after I put her in the pram my arms were sore inside of elbow and my arms were shaking and this morning I woke up with really sore muscles in my arms and I have really weak hands as well what does that mean . Even a couple weeks ago was playing guitar hero and using the guitar for a while and it done the exact same thing to me

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us,

Your symptoms look to be more due to lack of regular exercise, causing weakness of muscles.

Also if routine activities make you more tired than it does to others, do get your Haemoglobin checked, which if low can cause weakness and tiredness!!

I hope this helps,

Take care,

Regards!

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement Dr. Amit Kumar Jaiswal's  Response
hello, thank you for concern us
as you say that you had sore in elbow after any work or things which stress the elbow. it could be due to the muscle strain for that donot worrying about because its take 2 - 5 days to recover and if more sore then follow as Rest to the part, ice pack application and analgesics.
one thing i notice that you have same problem before couple weeks after playing guitar so that it could be due to elbow instability?
so that i suggest you that if you again get same problem then you must concern Orthopaedic surgeon to rule out muscle or ligaments injuries.

so i think this will help you.
take care
