I'm hoping some of you can shed light on this - would rather not go to a doctor's office right now, but will if it persists.
Basically I've had a dull pain on the side of my upper arm for a number of months. It's not specifically in the bicep or tricep, more like the tendon that connects them to the shoulder (I think). It neither gets better nor worse, just smarts, especially when I do the bench.
I watched some videos and adjusted my bench press form, and I do a practice set with no weights, just the bar. Still, on the first set I feel it a lot. Not so much on ensuing sets. It's only on my left side, the right is fine. It only hurts when I move my arm a certain way (like if I do an 'L' shape with the arm) or sleep on it for a long time. Otherwise, I don't feel it.
I've had muscle pains that come and go, sometimes they last some weeks and then go away.
Anyone here experienced this?
