What Causes Pain In Arm Of A Child?

I have an 8 year old son who has complained of having pain in his left arm that starts suddenly, enough to make him cry, and then it gradually tapers off after about 10 min or so. No injury has occurred that I am aware of. But he has been on the laptop for long while. I don t know if it s his position or what cause he is right handed. Should I take him to get seen? Could it be growing pains?
