Suggest Remedy For Pain And Loss Of Stamina In Arm
my husband lifted something heavy and heard a loud popping noise from his forearm. Now he has a lot of pain, and basically no strength left in his arm. He couldn t even button his pants. Could he have torn something? Will ibuprophen work? What do you suggest?

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to a torn muscle.
I suggest using cold compresses for local application.
I also suggest using Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day.
The symptoms will relieve gradually.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
