What Causes Pain In The Right Forearm After Lifting A Keyboard?
I was lifting some keyboards in my school to set up for a concert yesterday, and today I woke up with pain in my right forearm. It is on the inside/bottom of my for arm and it is similar to that of a pulled muscle. It hurts when I clench my writ, or when I bend my hand downwards. It also hurts when I grab thing and do everyday activities.
Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Weight-related forearm pain can occur if you overuse the arm muscles -- especially if you push yourself too hard or weight-train daily. It can develop if you fracture a bone, sprain a muscle or strain a tendon in the forearm when using weights. In addition, you can also develop tendinitis. This condition occurs suddenly or from continuously repeating a particular movement, such as lifting weights over a long period. Take rest, use pain killer medication and cold compression. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
