Suggest Treatment For Pain In Elbows

Supportive care should be enough.
Detailed Answer:
Hello there.
Welcome to healthcaremagic.
I am Dr.senduran,General physician hope to solve your query.
The pain is due to the muscle strain or overstretching..
In such cases, I usually suggest my patients with
1)Rest to strained muscles in order to prevent further injury.
2)Do not rub with topical analgesics.Apply gently when pain unbearable
3)Ice pack application every hour for 10 minutes at injured site
4)Elevatation and elastic bandage compression(if swelling associated)
5)Medications --OTC oral analgesics,generally not needed
But considering your age,I would advice to avoid NSAIDS like brufen.Take safer oral analgesic like acetaminophen .
With the above suggestions,you will definitely feel better and lesser pain.
Consider a local doctor's visit if symptoms worsen or no improvement after 24 hours..
Hope I have answered your query. If any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
Do proper warming up,stretching before doing any heavy work.
Take care.Wish you speedy recovery..
