I had arm trouble while typing for a while, and fixed it.

Trigger point therapy was the big one. I had a few spots in my right forearm that were messed up. The therapist jabbed them. It hurt terribly, but then my arm was much better.

I'm strong enough that I can now do the same thing to my own arm if I feel it getting tense. Armaid is also a great tool for this.

On my left arm, I had something worse. Found a physiotherapist who did MAT (muscle activation technique) and he managed to work out some adhesions in the upper part of my left hand.

If you have pain, go see a relevant therapist. There's a decent chance you have some kind of muscle trouble.

Note: I saw several non-useful therapists. For muscle adhesion problems, results should be pretty quick. I only needed 1-2 sessions with each of these guys.
