conducting stretching before and after, its helping. it happen to my left arm about a year ago. I was/am holding the frets and pick to hard. I am doing the same for right arm as I did for left arm. Working the opposing muscle groups.
relaxing grip and shorter playing times, back down to an hour.
If pain gets worse , I will see doc.

I'm not going to stray out of my lane so far as to give medical advice, but when I used to play bass guitar a lot, I found that taking my watch off while playing made a huge difference in whether or not I got pain in my wrist and elbow.
Just something to consider. I found that the extra pressure my watchband put on my wrist really affected my tendons.
