Hello,
Its possible you have an alignment but I cannot be sure without examination and necessary investigations. If I were your treating doctor I would suggest an X-ray of your forearm to confirm my diagnosis and plan further treatment.
Hope I have answered all your queries. If you have any further questions I would be happy to help.
