Hi Lise!

I'm sorry to hear that you're having pain in your right forearm. You stated that it feels warm & painful -- are you having any swelling in that area or tingling in your ring/pinky finger??

It hurts to use that arm to twist or carry anything
I know that you're a CNM & (obviously), use your hands A LOT....any chance that this might be carpal tunnel syndrome?

If I were you, I'd make an appointment with a hand surgeon, just to have it checked out. (or general orthopedic surgeon).

I hope that your arm/hand feels better soon -- Please keep us posted!

Denise
