Brief Answer:
I recommend you get evaluated!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.

This persistent pain could suggest a strain or a tear. To be able to tell what the exact nature of the injury is, I will suggest that you get evaluated. A physical examination and probably an ultrasound/imaging study would help establish this.

In the interim, rest the arm. Also, Tylenol/Ibuprofen as well as ice packs might help with the pain.

I hope this helps and guides.
I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me as you please.
