Pain in forearm 3 inches from elbow
I've a pain in my left forearm about three inches from elbow towards the wrist. To give an indication of area of pain, lying down on my back if my palm is facing up, the pain is on the side facing my body.
It increases when it put weight on it like when doing high plank or push-up.
