What Is The Treatment For Twinge In The Arm After Lifting Awkward Box?

I was lifting a large awkward box and tried to use my right arm to swing it into position. I felt a twinge and pain shot down my arpm. I thought it might be my bicep but that doesn t seem to be it. However, when I turn my hand inward I get a great deal of pain up the radius starting at the wrist up to my bicep. Could it be a nerve. No real swelling. No black and blue
