I injured my forearm lifting a heavy box 6 weeks ago. it is slowly getting better but there is still pain with some movements. should i see a doctor?

Perhaps: It depends on how much it is bothering you. If current pain is mild and you can do everything that you need or want to do, you can wait it out. If it is interfering with your ability to function, consider seeing your primary provider or a hand/upper extremity specialist, or a rehabilitation doctor.
