question: I am experiencing pain and weakness in my arms from my elbow to about halfway down my forearm. The pain is particularly noticeable when I try to pick and lift something up. I initially believed I over did It doing yard work but the pain is not improving and it s been at least a month. Taking Advil dulls the paid Someone mentioned to me that this may be carpal tunnel related? I am sick of chalking it up to old age. Any ideas?
