I've seen a few general practitioners, a physical therapist, and a neurologist about this since this started almost 6 years ago.

Most of them suggested non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. I tried low-dose nsaids for several months, even though they added gut pain to the arm pain. It turns out nsaids and other salicylates can also worsen hyperacusis. I now avoid them.

I haven't lost any arm or hand strength, but I have been in constant ulnar-nerve pain, and I may have worsened my coordination/proprioception problems.
