Hi, thanks for writing to HCM.
It is mandatory to have an xray of injured joint to rule out any bony injury.
The sensation of numbness and pin & needles is due to neurological disturbance in the nerves that are present at the level of the elbow.
So i suggest you to visit an orthosurgeon and follow his advice.
Hope this helps
