Im right handed, and when im doing curls it seems as tho the bone in my left forearm really hurts for a moment after i stop and sometimes during the workout.

It doesnt seem dangerous, but its kinda troubling. Anybody know whats up or what i can do to fix it?

I don't know. Did you fall on your arm? If not I would guess tendonitis maybe. Make sure you don't bend your wrist on curls. If it keeps hurting you might want to rest it.

I think I know what you're talking about. I had this happen to me when I started doing preacher curls consistently. Your wrist area and the part below it starts to hurt whenever you do anything with it. Basically, if you stop doing the curls, they will heal and you'll be fine.

Yep...I have the exact same thing and I know other people with it. I knew someone who had it checked out and no damage whatsoever was found. I think it's just a lot of stress on the forearms from consistently doing bicep curls. Rest is the only medicine. I don't think you can do any long term damage, but I know how much it hurts so I might take a break from curls soon.
