The extensor muscles and tendon in the forearm can be overworked by repetitive wrist extension or gripping. You might notice pain when trying to lift the kettle, open doors, lifting moderate to heavy loads or after long days on the computer. This pain can radiate up into the bicep or tricep and all the way down into the wrist or the hand.
