Something happened to my arm. I don't have health insurance but I have you /fit/.
My right arm hurts like a motherfucker, the grip is weak, and the pain is throughout my arm, also the digits on my right hand are trembling, I also have slight loss of fine motor skills in my pinkie and ring finger.
What should I do to make this better?
Also tip for those without a gf, settle for 5-6's, you'll be getting regular poon which helps mentally. Stop aiming for the stars.

So you just woke up like that?
Don't be a moron go to the doctor/walk in clinic/any place that has people with actual medical experience. This is not the place to get serious medical advice. Do you really want to die because some retarded faggot on this board told you it was nothing to worry about?
also is this gyno?

if it doesn't get better after 3 days go to a doc

No, it started during the my workout. I was finishing up a set of skull crushers and my arm just felt awful. No lack in strength but a dull pain throughout.

I doubt this is a life threatening injury. No way I can afford to see a doctor, on top of my student debt.
And yes that's gyno.

It's been two days and the lack in mobility is nearly the same in my ring finger and pinkie. It's non-existent during the morning but towards the evening it gets really bad.
Guys, has anyone ever had this happen? I'm seriously concerned :(

You most likely damaged a nerve. It's probably fixable, but you're gonna need to see a doctor.
This should be obvious, but lifting with that arm definitely isn't advisable.

Likely tendonitis. Ice painful areas in 20 min intervals. Don't do skull crushers or similar movements that cause pain for at least a week

Fuck, not nerve damage. I'm training to be an aeronautical tech. I need my fine motor skills.....

How can I prevent this happening in the future? What's a good exercise to replace skull crushers?
>>36438048
Numbness / lack of motor skill in the pinkie and ring finger indicates issues with the ulnar nerve. This happening when doing weighted elbow flexion (skullcrushers) pretty much solidifies it. Google ulnar neuritis rehab and give it two weeks to correct itself, give or take. Motor skill will return with rest and corrective exercise.

The ulnar nerve sits in the ulnar notch and doesn't have a lot of room to move around. When it gets stretched out during some weightlifting movements pulling and stretching can occur which leads to your exact symptoms. You may be overtraining now which is why rest is highly advisable in addition to rehab work. I had the same issue occur with me plus had to do a project on medial elbow injuries in my advanced athletic training class. You'll be fine in two weeks.
