Possibly inflammation of the elbow joint or tendons.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I think most probably you you are having inflammation of the elbow joint or inflammation of tendons of the elbow.
Possibly due to overusing the elbow , doing sports, lifting weights , etc.
First thing to do is avoid excessive usage of the elbow, especially during sports, having rest and use any anti-inflammatory drugs such ibuprofen or naproxen for pain.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again.
I don't think there is a tear in elbow muscle. It has very strong pain initially which starts after a trauma. Swelling and bruising persist. The muscle ball up in the middle of the arm.
You are not have any of these symptoms so I don't think it is a muscle rupture.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
