asked

I have a pain in my left arm that started about a week ago, located about 2 inches below the inside of my elbow. The pain is sharp when in certain positions or when picking up items, even lighter ones, but there is no pain at rest. The pain has also spread upwards to my shoulder. I am a mechanic, often in awkward arm positions under stress for extended periods. I am a 44-year-old, heavy-set white male taking Prozac and blood pressure medication. What could this pain be, and how can I manage it without needing to visit a doctor right before Christmas?
