Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

You may have sprained your elbow during work. it means stretching of the inner elbow ligament. Usual treatment is rest for few days and Avoid weight lifting by involved limb. Ice packs application helps in reducing inflammation and pain. If pain is not tolerable take tab ibuprofen 400 mg twice a day for 3 days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
