it hurts up around my elbow and down my forearm.i was playing basketball at school and it hurt when i went to shoot the ball, and my side still hurts when i go to lift anything heavy.why do i keep getting these i injuries

at first i thought u had forearm splints.....but it looks more complicated than that...go to a doctor

no way i'm not going to the doctor.i'm over due for shoots ,and i have not had my heart checked out to make sure it's still ok

dude..u have to go to a doctor....how can u expect someone sitting in front of a computer to tell u ur problem? sure eric/0311/dave/hrdgain/sleazy will be able to tell u what they feel, but it is only the doctor who KNOWS what has happened....and u never know: these injuries may become VERY serious....

He's very right. And if there is anything wrong with your heart ignoring it won't make it go away. As I said before the most likely cause is too heavy weights or improper warmups. However it occured to me that you had been working out 5 days a week or something? For six months without a day off? THAT could lead to injuries depending on what you were doing.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.

i will be ok.

i take days off two every week

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...

On the forearm thing 0311 has most likely hit it on the head. As far as what I was saying if you feel you are being prone to injuries and you've gone for six months like that it could be part of it. Sometimes you need a little extra downtime from training here and there.
