Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) perhaps? An over use injury from repetitive rapid motion. Pretty common. Sauerkraut had crippling cases as a teenager I hear. A steriod shot or anti-inflammatory rx, physical therapy, and an elbow strap often help.
Turn your arm so your thumb points out, press along the outside edge of your elbow near the bone, if it hurts like hell that is likely what you got.
The nerves to the rest of the lower arm don't run past there, damage to them usually shows up as hand symptoms.
Muscle relaxants and pain meds are unlikely to do anything other than delay getting the right treatment.
