For about the last 6 weeks I ahve had pretty nasty forearm pain in my left arm (right handed). The most painful things are gripping/making a fist and straightening the arm after sitting/standing with it bent (such as at my computer desk (standing) or couch (armrest)). It does not hurt all the time, but only when doing these motions.
Pain is at the top of the forearm, near - but not at - the elbow, about 2 fingerwidths down from the join (1-2" or so). Its a fairly sharp pain, that if stressed for a bit can become more dull/achy.
I have had quite a few forearm tendon issues over the last year in both arms, but this particular pain is new (location/length of time). All healed perfectly after some rehab exercises and some with the addition of BPC-157. I have run 4 weeks of BPC as well as been doing standard twisting, gripping type exercises to try to improve it but to no avail. Doing nothing (taking days+ off of anyhting that hurts) has also not seemed to make it any better, and may actually have made it worse intially after. Oddly enough, it does seem to feel a bit better (for a few hours) after some exercises with moderate pain. I have also been wearing a tennis elbox "band" the whole time to try to help, but it only seems to help a tiny bit, and obviously only while wearing.
I've been looking around for what it could be, and 90% of the info points to "tennis elbow", however I'm not sure that's it as the descriptions and exercises don't seem to target this area, as well as it is not truly what I would consider an "elbow area" pain, more just upper forearm.
Any thoughts, advice, amateur diagnoses, tips, or insults are all appreciated as it has really become a downer as only pressing movements and legs are pain free at this point, making my workouts quite boring/frustrating.
