Questions: If you are able to keep down fluids and maintain your hydration then I don't think an ER visit is necessary. As to why your right arm hurts, I can't say. Any history of trauma? Did you sleep on it funny? Where does your arm hurt (shoulder, elbow, wrist??). If your symptoms persist or if you find that you are unable to stay hydrated, or the pain becomes near-unbearable then see your doc.
