Hi I am a 19 year old male some days before I was doing arm wrestling when I heard a popping sound from my right arm but I didn't feel anything a day later I experienced pain in between the bicep and elbow now its been 5 days I experience sudden sharp pain. For your information I have been going to the gym since a year but never experienced this kind of problem. Thanks in advance.
