What Causes Radiating Pain From Bicep Area To Elbow With Red Line?

I have been having pain in my bicep area just under my armpit and extending around my arm to my elbow. This has been found on for the past the days and the pain is spreading to my forearm. Now I have a purplish red line in those exact address that is raised and swollen. I don t remember doing anything to hurt my arm or even strain it. The only thing I can think of is that I feel on some ice and injured my elbow in March.
