Lower arm pain?

My right lower arm is absolutely in horrendous pain - it began aching this afternoon as I was shopping, nothing involving heaving lifting. I don’t remember knocking it or sustaining any injury.

I did fracture it, some 30 odd years ago though! The pain feels deep & resting it or moving it doesn’t make it worse/better. There is no bruising or swelling. I have no pins & needles feeling in my fingers they feel ok.

If it still hurts in the morning I may see if I can get in to see my GP, but any thoughts??

When you were shopping, did you have a bag or purse hanging on your shoulder?

Aqua, no bag or purse hanging in my arm, had a cross the body bag, very light. Arm still hurting after taking 2 ibuprofen, quite strange!

If the ibuprofen haven’t touched it it may well be nerve pain. A chiropractor would be able to test and diagnose.
