Default Re: Intense pain in my arm...

Nation,

Take it easy for a week until all the soreness is gone. Try alternating hot and cold packs, or try a contrast bath/shower (hot water for a few minutes, then dunk yourself in ice cold water for a minute). I suggest you take your first few workouts a bit easy because the DOMS can be overwhelming and discouraging. And don't work your muscles to total failure.
