Suggest Treatment For Arm Soreness Post Workout

Hi, I was doing was push ups the other day and felt something click in the back side of my upper arm. It did not hurt at that moment. about a day and a half later I awoke with my arm being sore and now cant reach behind and inter lock my fingers as I was able to before. Also it hurts to put pressure on it as I try to push off the chair to get up. Is it more sounding like a pulled muscle or something more serious?

hi
going through question I consider that you are not regular in push ups.
so you are in starting pahse and tends to workout more on day 1
Most likely I feel you have developed pulled muscles.
Your muscles which are not used to workout suddenly has to undergo tremendous work goes into pain and tends to reduce activities by producing spasm
take rest and if required muscle relaxant
Please go through your workout slowly and gradually build up
Don't try to become some huge bodybuilder in one day
Take care
