What Causes Pain In The Arm Radiating To The Elbow And Inner Arm?

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a pinched nerve if the arm. I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain. I also suggest to maintain the the arm immobilized to prevent further damage.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
