What Causes Burning Sensation Of Wrist & Elbow?

My right arm between my wrist and elbow, on the inside area feels like I have burned it. Of course I have not and it hurts for me to rest it on my desk or have any clothing touch it. It is not swollen or red. I have RA. Is this a side affect of RA that I have never felt before?

Cardiologist,  's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms are suggestive of a pinched nerve. For this reason, I recommend performing nerve conduction studies in order to examine your nerves.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
