Muscle hardened below elbow. The hardened muscle has very minute pain. And it feels like the muscle is stuck to the bone and ain't moving.

It generally occurs after any exertion or after any kind of repeated movements 8f done for a long time. As the arms are not used to these kind of movements, so lead to fatigue and muscle soreness and therefore spasm.
Next Steps
Consult a physiotherapist.. Ultrasonic therapy +TENS +heat therapy will be helpful and will be ok within 3-4 days.
Health Tips
At home rest to the arm+ avoid exertion+hot water fomentation +pain killer gel is enough.

Next Steps
Find a physiotherapist who performs this technique
Health Tips
Cold fermentation is a must after the technique
U will be having 3 to 5 sittings of this technique and u will be fine...

Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
Without seeing and examining the same we will not be able to tell what it is.
And also we will need to perform some tests.
Kindly consult a orthopedician in person for further evaluation and management.
Best regards.
