<human>: My 11 year old daughter has been complaining on and off for the past few weeks of pain in her right forearm. She recently played volleyball and just completed her season. I attributed the pain to volleyball but she continues to complain now that volleyball is done. The pain is a deep aching pain. She insists the arm is swollen. I have looked at it and am not certain. It seems slightly swollen just above the elbow. I have given her ibruprofen but can t do this too often as she has reflex. Is this something to investigate or just continue to watch?
<bot>: Hello, Her symptoms could be related to local inflammation. Is the pain triggered by arm movements or pressure on the arm? This could be indicative of a musculoskeletal pain or local inflammation. Anyway, the situation is not an emergency. After the risk of coronavirus will be over, I would recommend consulting with her attending physician for a physical exam and some tests:- An X-ray study-Complete blood count, PCR, ESR for inflammation Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
