What Does My MRI Scan Report Indicate?

Question: I have a problem in my right elbow . it's been an year, initially I was given painkillers, then depimedrol injections . depimedrol helped fr sometime, but injury reoccured after steroidal effect faded. I am attaching the MRI report. I have tried physiotherapy, pain killers , steroids , but the problem still stays, its very painful when I do pulling exercises.
Brief Answer:
Go for joint fluid analysis.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
I have gone through the MRI report attached. It shows joint effusion (collection of fluid). It could be due to injury or inflammation in the area. As this inflammation had become chronic, you need joint fluid analysis to reach the proper diagnosis.
Hope this helps you.
Warm regards.
