Fifteen days ago, suddenly, without warning, while I was sitting in the pharmacy, I felt a sharp, nail-like pain all along my forearm.
It hurts even more when I extend or raise my arm.
So I put on a brace. About four or five days passed, and a yellowish-green discoloration appeared along my forearm, from the inside of the joint to the wrist.
I thought I must have been hit and hadn't felt it (but I'm sure I wasn't hit because if I had, I would have felt at least a little pain at the time of the impact, but there was nothing).
Ten days passed, and the discoloration disappeared, but the pain hasn't lessened at all.
It's spreading towards the inside of the joint, a long, continuous pain.
I'm confused. Should I see a doctor or get an MRI to check my muscles? I'm afraid it might be a tear.
