Egh, I think it’s indeed tendinitis at the Achilles tendon and I’ll have to pause my training :(
My Forerunner 165 made me start too hard with its suggested exercises before I enrolled in a program… and I never recovered.
I’ll try one week without running, and if it doesn’t improve I’ll go see a doctor.
Tendinitis can cause arm pain
The main symptom of tendonitis is pain that radiates to the elbow or biceps when the arm is bent. Put ice on and stretch the area.
Acupuncture, chiropractic and osteopathy can help.

(3/3) Those first few days were not fun.
I did get evaluated by a doctor who basically said that playing violin had caused the tendinitis and I needed to go to physical therapy (PT)…which wasn’t a thing in the small town where my summer camp was located. :(
To be continued…
(2/3) It was an aching that crawled up my arm in waves – starting on the back of my hand and pulsing up to my elbow every few seconds.
I remember thinking to myself that it was so strange to have what felt like muscular pain in the back of my hand.
After all, it was so bony and it had never occurred to me that my hand could hurt like a pulled muscle.
(1/3) It’s another Sunday, and thus, it’s time to talk more about tendinitis.
I want to delve a bit into what that initial tendinitis felt like because it was like nothing I had ever experienced before.
I was used to the acute pain of a banged-up knee or fractured finger. Or the subtle sting of a paper cut. The pain of tendinitis was the complete opposite.
(3/3) I remember setting the practice room temperature to about 68 degrees Fahrenheit because it was so hot outside. Looking back, that was the worst idea ever. Not only was I not giving myself breaks, my poor muscles and tendons were not warm AT ALL. They were quite the opposite.
And that night, while I was lying down to go to sleep, the pain in my left wrist and forearm began.
