What is this arm pain?

Ever since I started a boot camp class a few months ago (lots of pushups) I have pain in my upper left arm. It is very generalized and feel like someone punched me in the arm, likes its bruised on the inside. Working out does not make it worse, yet rest does not make it better. Anyone else experienced something like this?

    months of pain?

    you should have been seeing a doctor a while ago.

    Normal muscle pain from a workout (DOMS) lasts 24 - 96 hours, after that you’ve got something else going on (like an injury). Follow JoRocka’s advice and talk to a doctor.
