Small Protrusion In Elbow Causing Pain And Soreness
I have some elbow pain. My wife an RN think I have injured my ulna nerve in some way. If you were to position your arm in such a manner as the palm of the hand is laying flat and arm is at a 45 degree angle; follow an imaginary line from the center of your wrist watch on your left arm up to the elbow, there is a small protrusion which to me feels like a bone. It is sore like it is bruised, and it is painful when I left objects, objects as light as my Samsung tablet. Clear as mud?

It can be tennis elbow. I would suggest you to show to a orthopedics surgeon. You should do hot water fomentation, diclofenec ointment, brufen tablet and avoid doing work till diagnosis is confirmed . Tennis elbow band is available in market. That can be used. If pain not subsides then steroid injection is also an option.
