What Does Pain In The Forearm And Elbow Indicate?

I ve had gradual pain beginning in the outside edge of my pinky and extending up the outside of my forearm to the elbow. It is extremely painful and I am having difficulty using my hand and arm due to tightness in both. Can this be something other than carpel tunnel?

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Tenosynovitis also can give such symptoms. Giving rest and taking NSAIDs like Ibuprofen for 5 to 7 days thrice daily will be helpful.
Thanks.
I find this answer helpful
