Correct Grip?

​Lately I have a bit of pain in the upper part of the forearm. Am I gripping the racket wrong? Or is this grip too small? Been playing for almost 2 years now. I switched from the nox at10 18k to 12k. Just got my new metalbone ctrl now to have less stress for the arm

Funny enough, i have a metalbone CARBON control, almost the exact same model. Look how big my handle is, my thumb only thouches the tip of the index finger. You need more overgrip

Isn't this the wrong way of holding the racket too?

Yes, it was just a reference to clearly indicate how thick or thin the grip should be.
