Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Pain in the elbow is generally multi factorial; being present all the time and not relieved by Diclofenac 2/3 times daily indicates presence of severe arthritis. I suggest that you get X-rays of elbow for diagnosis .
In the meantime , add Tramadol as pain killer.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
