Suggest Treatment For Soreness In Forearms
Last Friday morning I woke up with soreness in my two forearms on the inside. I played golf in the afternoon. I have not been lifting weights lately but I have been lifting 24 packs of water and my 42 pound 5 year old daughter. I wonder if I have a strain or if I have carpal tunnel. i can make a fist but it feels weak.

Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to strained muscles due to overuse. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen tre times a day.
I also recommend using anti-inflammatory cream such as Voltaren gel for local application. I recommend to rest and avoid overuse of the muscles.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
