What Causes Tightness And Pain In My Triceps?

I woke up last night with a severe ache / pain in my right triceps brachii. I did not fall or otherwise consciously injure myself, so I am baffled as to why it would hurt as such. I am able to lift my arm, but with limitation and to lift and turn my arm upward while pushing back is a no-go. Now what do I do?

Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic
I have gone through your query and understand your concern. It seems to be muscular pain. Its cause can be something related to wrong position during sleeping. Another cause can be viral. Its treatment is rest and analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Vitamin B and C is helpful in recovery. You can discuss with your doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you.
