Why Am I Feeling Tight Around Arm?
About two weeks ago, I woke up and found my left arm feeling tight, like I pulled my muscle. If I straighten my arm, it feels tight. Feeling along my arm, I found that the discomfort was really originating from my vein; and there were a few bumps (4 or more) along the vein. What is this?

The pain by your description looks non cardiac. Still, to rule cardiac cause tell me what is your age. Any associated disease like diabetes, hypertension. Smoker or not. Get a ECG done. You can get a TMT or stress echo done for cad risk assessment. Get back with the answers.
