What Causes Tenderness And Soreness In The Skin Of Right Arm?
The skin inside my right arm from my thumb to halfway up my forearm is tender and it looks like I am loosing muscle mass in this area. I have measured and it is 1/2 inch smaller than my left arm. It doesn t feel like the pain is in the muscle but in the skin itself. It is very tender to the touch. I have had no injury to this arm or no insect bites of any kind.
