Suggest Treatment For Severe Elbow Pain
I have a pain at the elbow that is a sort of burning sensation with certain movements. Weakness when grabbing with fingers and pulling up as if untucking a shirt. When I attempt to clench my fist and rotate my hand pronate/supinate it is painful and very weak. Contemplating getting it checked but if nothing major don t want to waste the doctors time.
