Sorting packages on the workroom floor.

What happened

I was asked to remove all the packages from a box scan them and place them on a float. The box is about waist to chest high. The packages varied in size and weight from maybe 5-30lbs in weight (estimate) and between shoebox and big screen in size. As I was reaching down into the box to remove the packages to scan my right arm began to hurt. I attributed it to the fact that I had been lifting and pushing all night. The pain has gotten substantially worse and my arm and hand are swelling now. I am experiencing sharp shooting pains in my right outer arm between my elbow and wrist. It hurts when I maneuver certain ways and when I try to grip most things. It also hurts to lift anything with my right arm but especially so when I try to lift in an overhand motion. My arm and my hand are swelling as well and even when I 'm not experiencing the sharp shooting pain I am experiencing a constant sore ache that leaves my arm feeling weak. [REDACTED]
