I used to get the same thing. It used to be really bad, but it only hurts when I let the bar go during preacher curls or barbell curls (heavy). I bet you were probably using a straight bar for your forearm work? According to a sports medicine physician, it's called ulnar stress syndrome and it's due to extreme supination of the forearms and undue stress placed on the ulna secondary to weak forearm musculature. I'm not saying your forearms are weak, just maybe overworked. Unfortunately, the only things to do is to wrap it up tight and deal, or switch to lighter weight while the pain goes away. What worked best for me was to stop using the straight bar for a while...
