Suggest Remedy For Pain On Forearm After Lifting Heavy Objects
I was lifting something heavy and felt almost like a severe shock going up and down my forearm. Now it s very painful on the top of my forearm and I m having trouble lifting anything with that arm. Could I have torn my forearm tendon and would there be any swelling or bruising?
Your symptoms could be related to a sprained muscle or a nerve issue. For this reason, I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and some tests: CPK levels, complete blood count and nerve conduction studies. You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
