Injury Question


I have been experiencing a soreness lately in my right arm just above and below the elbow. I was wondering if it could be some sort of athritis. I repair digital cameras at work, so I am manually screwing and unscrewing cameras all day. I notice the pain towards the end of the day at work usually. But recently it has been bothering me in my lifts and seems to be holding back my progress. I just wanted to see what you guys thought.

I feel it right where the tricep starts to stick out on the upper arm and down along my forearm.

Could be tendonitis. Or it could be strain from overuse. I'm not a doctor nor do I play one on TV, so perhaps you should have a real one check it out for you.

Perhaps you should get a small electric screwdriver for work....???

definitely sounds like tendonitis. take anti-inflammatories and see a doctor before it becomes something worse.

Yup, I've got it too from repetitive use at work (it sucks). Catch it early that's all I can say because the better you manage it the less it will take time away from living and making money.
