Hi, About a month or more ago, I spent the day working fairly assertively around the house....scrubbing bathrooms, walls, laundry, vacuuming, etc. Throughout the day, I experienced more and more pain from my hand to elbow and even radiating into my upper arm. By the end of the day I couldn t grip anything with my right (dominant) hand. I finished vacuuming with my left. I have continued to experience pain in that same arm for over a month. Not as severe as the initial onset the day I was working with it a lot, but it has never completely subsided. I am 46 year old female. I work as a nurse and am decent condition. It seems using it agitates it, so Im not sure about exercises that might make it heal.
