Weak, throbbing pain in forearm and middle finger?

For the past couple of days, I've been having a weak (sometimes stronger), throbbing pain toward the middle of my forearm, and on my middle finger (maybe it's an extension?) It happens randomly, lasts for a bitt, and disappears. There is no physical change during the pain. It is also on my left arm/hand, which is not as heavily used (I'm right handed). Any ideas?

    You should be tested for carpel tunnel syndrome. It's something you usually get in both arms and it can cause problems in hands, wrists, sometimes all the way up to the shoulder.

    Source(s): Went to LPN school in California, and I have it and was tested for it.
