    Unhappy pain on thumb side

    My pain comes on the thumb side of my left forearm. I thinknit started from.going a bit too heavy on hammer curls. And it kills me when I rotate my wrist clockwise. Like opening a door knob. I was hoping I could just take a week off arms as I was doing them twice a week. Bu when I went to do chest flys my forearm started hurting.. so I may need more time off

    1 week isn't enough

    Update: I week resting and my forearm still has pain when I twist it or even try to lift my 2 yr old. Considering a trip to the doctor but im sure he will just say I was lifting to heavy and let it rest. Any ideas? Any tips to get it healed? I need to get back in the gym!

    Sounds like De Quervains synovitis. Anti-inflammatory medication, ice if acutely sore, stretching tight muscles in the forearm, gradually getting back into activity.
    The science is out there!

    Trying to get back into it slowly now.. did shoulders with just slight pain while doing cable side raises. Any suggestions on how to stretch it besides foam rolling and the usual wrist stretch (pulling fingers back and straighten blthe arm)

    update

    1 month later and feeling 90% better continued to worknout but dropped curls and tricep exercises for the most part.. did maybe 1 or 2 easy sets a week for each and thats it. Lots of fish oil and animal flex vita pack seemed to help.
