What Causes Radiating Pain From Upper Arm To Wrist Post Injury?

I recently was moving a door when to lay it next to a wall when the other person let go rather fast. Ever since I have had pain in the upper arm that seems to now radiate down to the lower arm. Over the counter pain meds do not help. What should I do?

Hi,

I will advise Ap humerus view and forearm [X-ray arm ] should ne done. Rest, ice, compression via [elastic bandage wrap] and little elevation helps in sprain. If it is not recovering, consultation with an orthopedist is needed.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
