Pain along brachial artery w exercise. plus extremely strong pulse in that artery w exercise compared to other arm. what could it be?

Need an examination.: Your condition sounds strangely like something known as an exertional compartment syndrome. Usually chronic, but can be aggravated with strenuous exercise. After resting ,the pain goes away. Having said that, it might be something else involving the arm.
