Bruised Muscle With Pain. Pain In The Armpit And Elbow. Treatment?

I have a pain in my right arm. I originally thought i pulled a muscle but i have started to see a little bruising. I feel the pain on the inside of my arm towards my armpit all the way down to below my inner elbow. There is no pain during regular movements it is only when i touch it or straighten my arm. What could it be?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain that you are having is likely to be due to the soft tissue injury that you had. You need to give adequate rest to the area, take mild pain killers and do a regular hot fomentation for relief.
