What Causes Pain In Forearms While Holding The Grip?

There is a pain in my left forearm for about a week now, and my other forearm is starting to hurt now too. There is no bruising or swelling at all. I do removals for a funeral home so sometimes I do have to do heavy lifting. Any idea what is going on? I use some sort of gel, that are used on cattle, and rub it on the forearm and it relieves the pain. It only hurts right after I release my grip from an object and the pain doesn t last after that.
