My doctor had me do some physical therapy on my arm but I only needed one visit. I bicycle a lot with my husband. This tenderness doesn t seem to go awAy. I m wondering if you would know what causes it. Thank you and also what could help
Your symptoms seem to be related to muscles spasms. I suggest using an anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen 400mg to relieve the pain. I also suggest to avoid heavyweight lifting and heavy exercise.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
