I am noticing severe pain in my arm when i throw a baseball?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Overuse: If you use the same arm over and over to hold throw a ball - it can lead to repetitive stress injuries especially if you throw many times in a short period. I advise stretching, taking breaks, and meeting with a physical therapist if the pain continues for muscle rebalancing/strengthening techniques especially with focus on the rotator cuff.
