Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have elbow bone hurting Dr thinks its golfer elbow I be been wearing tennis elbow thing on forearm ,got steroid shot been on antiflammotory both bottles empty and it has become inflamed and hurts muscle and elbow just barely moving it much less picking up something even as much as 5 lbs. I need a painkiller of some kind for pain I m tired of hurting.
Dear patient You have got golfer elbow with severe pain if pain is not relieved by drugs and injection of steroid locally last option is surgery. Before that I would like to advise mri of elbow to rule out other diseases. MRI also shows exact site of inflammation. Visit radiology center nearby you and get it done. In surgery flexor elbow muscles which are attached at medial epicondyle is released and gives permanent relief. You need to visit expert orthopaedic surgeon nearby you and get yourself examined.
